Designed by Russel Wright, made by Old Hickory
Russel Wright shaped American design around everyday life, favoring comfort, practicality, and ease of use over formality. His American Craft Collection is made by Old Hickory Furniture in Indiana, pairing his design philosophy with bent-hickory construction and handwork refined over generations.

Made for Gardens and Open Air
“I believe with religious intensity that good design is for everyone.” — Russel Wright
-
WOVEN BY HAND
The back and seat are hand-caned using natural fiber, woven for strength, flexibility, and comfort. The pattern is straightforward and durable, allowing the surface to breathe and respond naturally to use over time.
-
Solid hickory construction
Hickory is steam-bent and worked by hand, revealing knots, grain shifts, and subtle changes in tone. These variations are not defects or embellishments—they are evidence of the material and the method. No two pieces are exactly alike, and none are meant to be.

materials
Solid American White Oak, sourced primarily from Pennsylvania and Michigan. Stainless steel fasteners.
assembly
The chair arrives flat-packed. Stainless threaded inserts are used alongside standardized 1/4-20 1-3/8” stainless hex drive screws.
care
For graceful graying, wash off any visible mildew with soap and water then apply tung oil. If you'd prefer to reduce graying of the wood, you can source a pigmented finish, for example Pine Tar or pigmented tung oil.

Since 1892, Old Hickory Furniture has built by hand, using solid hickory shaped with heat, pressure, and time. The methods remain largely unchanged, chosen for strength, repairability, and long service life.

Rustic American White Oak
White Oak is uniquely suited to outdoor furniture, because it is naturally closed pore, and thus, exceptionally rot resistant.

Zero VOC Waterproofing and Finish
We use Vermont Natural Coating's Juniper infused waterproofer, that leaves no topcoat. We then hand-rub it with pure tung oil.

Things to Know
The Wave Hill Chair is an outdoor piece of solid wood furniture and thus it’s important to have clarity around a few things:
Gently Grays with Age
All wood experiences a natural change in color as surface tannins oxidize and UV light slowly breaks down the wood’s lignin. The chair you have at the end of the first summer is going to be grayer than the one you have when you open the box.
Knots Abound
The oak we’ve sourced has lots of knots, imperfections, and character. Every chair will be different. If you feel dissatisfied with a particular part, or board, let us know and we'll assess options.
Lifetime Repair Warranty Does Not Apply
America’s beautiful, yet brutal seasons will ensure your chair has an eventful life. While careful care can extend the life of your chair, it’s important to recognize that outdoor furniture has a naturally shorter lifespan.
