Jeff Trapp Windsors

Jeff Trapp Windsors is a one man Windsor chairmaking shop in Madison, Wisconsin. Because I feel strongly about creating each chair by hand, I start by harvesting the trees myself from northern Wisconsin woodlands. That means I don't use lathe duplicators or purchased parts. All the parts of the chair, with the exception of the seat, are shaped from riven wood (hand split along the grain) The leg-to-seat and armpost-to-seat joints are wedged-tapered sockets which results in a highly durable construction.
