ARAREVICTORIANWELSHVERNACULARLIPWORKARMCHAIR PROBABLY CARDIGANSHIRE,C.1870

constructed of coiled straw and holly bark, on iron castors

Catalogue Note

Lipwork (or lippwork)- A basketry technique, whereby thick straw ropes (of wheat or barley) are bound into shape using thin strips of peeled bark (holly, bramble,etc) or string,in the production of chairs,bee-hives,void eras and other baskets. The name derives from a ‘seed-lipp,the basket carried by farmers carrying out the broadcast method of sowing seed. From ‘Names for Things - a description of Household Stuff, Furniture and Interiors 1500-1700 byVictorChinnery.Oblong2016.

The straw ropes are used to cover a usually ash frame in a technique of chair production probably dating back to the Roman times, if not earlier. References to woven furniture often appear in household inventories from the Middle Agesonwards.
