I'm loving these Bruce White horseshoe chairs because they look incredibly badass. A skilled craftsman, White collects reclaimed horseshoes and transforms them into functional chairs. Each furniture piece has been painstakingly handcrafted and welded together to create these one-of-a-kind thrones. There are two versions available, a chair and a rocker, depending on personal preference.
Bruce White makes these chairs on a made-to-order request and they come in red, black, and green.
