A smoker’s bow chair is a sturdy, low-backed armchair popular in Victorian and Edwardian pubs, offices, and smoking rooms. It’s a variation of the Windsor chair, with a continuous curved arm and back rail supported by turned spindles, a solid hardwood seat, and short, splayed legs joined by stretchers for strength. Compact and comfortable, it was designed to be stable and durable for long use in busy settings.
