Crafted from dense rock maple, these chairs reflect the durability and restrained design Tell City became known for during the mid-20th century revival of traditional American forms.

The classic ladderback silhouette is paired with hand-woven rush seats, offering both comfort and visual texture. Well-proportioned and substantial without feeling heavy, these chairs work equally well around a farmhouse table, in an English country interior, or mixed into a collected, traditional dining setting.

JUNE'S THOUGHTS
Tell City was deeply proud of its furniture-making tradition, and it shows in pieces like these. There’s an honesty to their construction—no excess, just well-made chairs designed to be used for generations. The town even maintains the Tell City Furniture Museum today, a reminder of how central this craft was to the community. These feel like chairs that have already lived a good life and are ready to continue that story in your home.
