Viking Norse Throne - Hand-Carved Solid Oak Mythology Storytelling Chair Schools Bespoke Handmade Wales

The Viking Norse Throne Chair is a hand-carved solid oak throne with bold Norse-inspired carvings built for storytelling, ceremony & anyone who wants a chair that commands a room the moment it arrives in it. Originally designed for Viking & Pagan wedding ceremonies, this throne has since found its way into school libraries, reading gardens, event venues & private homes. It works everywhere it goes, because the carving is strong enough to hold its own in any setting & the proportions are generous enough to feel genuinely throne-like rather than decorative. It is a chair people actually want to sit in & look at, & photograph, & gather around. Suitable for indoor & outdoor use.

Finish This piece is supplied unvarnished as standard. Left natural, solid oak slowly weathers to a soft, silvery-grey completely normal for outdoor timber, a graceful way for a piece to age, & with no maintenance needed. If you'd prefer to bring out the grain & warm, honeyed tones, choose the varnished option 50) & we'll hand-apply three coats of Epifanes, a premium marine yacht varnish. More about the two finishes Outdoor furniture takes a real beating from sun & weather. Left natural, an unvarnished piece simply silvers over time & asks nothing of you. A varnished piece keeps its rich sheen for a couple of years; after that the varnish may begin to flake or patch, at which point you can simply re-coat it, or let it weather back to that natural silvery-grey. Either way, your oak is fine. Viking Norse Throne - Hand-Carved Solid Oak Mythology Storytelling Chair Schools Bespoke Handmade Wales
