Uwharrie Chair

Just south of the nation's furniture capital, High Point, North Carolina, a small rocky stream meanders through the quiet, rolling countryside. It flows by old farmsteads and new neighborhoods, dead gold mines and living forests, eventually becoming the Uwharrie River (pronounced you-WAH-ree). Ultimately, the water reaches the Uwharrie Mountains, a small range occupied centuries ago by Native Americans DeSoto called the Suala. The name "Uwharrie'' is attributed to them, a conclusion supported by references in John Lawson's 1701 journal documenting a visit to "Heighwarrie''. Today the Uwharrie Mountains and Uwharrie National Forest are known for their abundance of wildlife, deep recreational lakes, and peaceful, natural beauty. The name is synonymous with rustic charm and relaxation. Providing our customers with a lifestyle for a lifetime, perhaps the best description of the Original Uwharrie Chair.

Hand Crafted With Love
Uwharrie Chair’s unique outdoor furniture collections combine classic American styling with extraordinary comfort and character. These heavy, generously scaled products are crafted from kiln-dried pressure treated southern yellow pine, an American renewable resource or Premium Uwharrie Polymer, which is manufactured from purified blends of post consumer, pre consumer and/or virgin HDPE (high density polyethylene) base resins. A distressed finish treatment provides an antique, weathered appearance on the pine; upon request the pine can be painted with no distressing. Hand crafted to your construction needs and price needs, these chairs and their companion pieces will provide comfort and character.

Our wooden outdoor furniture is crafted of hand selected, domestically harvested, pressure treated solid pine. Available in 1” thick pine, the wood of choice for ski lodge decks, marina docks and landscape walks, treated lumber offers distinct advantages over the traditional outdoor materials, it may be stained or painted (or left natural), and it’s milled from a renewable resource: plantation grown southern pine. Uwharrie Chair Company’s 1” thick wooden outdoor furniture has a limited lifetime warranty against rot, water damage and insect infestation. As the pine ages naturally in all our wood products, you should expect to see some additional loss of paint and some surface cracking. Our outdoor furniture crafted from Premium Uwharrie Polymer is colored through and offered in a variety of finishes. It’s perfect for outdoor use; warranted for a lifetime against rotting, decaying, water damage and insect infestation.
