Style and Comfort with Adirondack Chairs
Adirondack chairs have been popular for over a
century, and their timeless design is still as
popular as ever among people looking for
comfortable, relaxing outdoor furniture.
The original Adirondack chair,
invented in 1903 by Thomas Lee while vacationing with his family in
Westport, New York, was simple and sturdy. His design incorporated
the characteristic slanted back and wide armrests. This design of
outdoor chair was patented by Harry Bunnel, who named it after the
nearby Adirondack region. For the next 20 years, he successfully
sold his Adirondack chairs, made of hemlock, to summer residents of
the resort town of Westport. The classic Adirondack style continues
to be a favorite choice today.
Not only does Adirondack furniture look great in any recreational
setting, including decks, patios, porches, and gardens, but it is
also amazingly comfortable. This combination of looks and comfort
ensure its enduring appeal on into the future. Made from different
types of wood, including cedar, teak, and mahogany, Adirondack
chairs are durable. The wood can be left bare to weather naturally,
sealed or stained to preserve its natural color, or painted any
color you wish. A modern alternative made of recycled plastic chairs
looks incredibly like real wood and is virtually maintenance free.
Today the original design has been used to create various types of
furniture, such as Adirondack rocking chairs and porch swings.
Recliners with cushions for extra comfort are popular, as are the
all-in-one styles with a retractable ottoman. There are many
different Adirondack sets to choose from to achieve a coordinated
look. Sets may include matching side tables, footrests, and
ottomans. The wide armrests of an Adirondack chair are perfect for
holding a note pad, drinks, or books. It’s no wonder that this style
of traditional outdoor furniture is still so popular. An Adirondack
chair is ideal for unwinding and relaxing on a long summer day!
