History:

Originally, it was "The Freshman Chair". It served as one of a score of sturdy dining chairs in the Freshman Dining Room, one of four large rooms on the first floor of "College Commons", the original name of Harvard's University Hall, designed by Charles Bullfinch in 1811.

Harvard freshmen apparently waged fierce food fights with upperclassmen. When this resulted in broken dishes in 1818, one of the young perps, Ralph Waldo Emerson, was "rusticated" (sent home) to Concord for a semester to think things over before returning. Designed with unique cutouts allowing them to be pulled from the table, the chairs were fashioned by local craftsmen to outlast anything students could come up with. Early in the 20th century, one of the remaining chairs was found and restored. A richly decorated replica dubbed "The Harvard Chair" was soon offered for sale to alumni by the Harvard Alumni Association. Since that time, this unique chair has been recognized, and utilized, throughout the college and proudly possessed by Harvard graduates throughout the world in their homes, libraries, offices, and practices.
