Windsor chair (back-rail spindle) for the Library, Glasgow School of Art, 1910

This item was lost in the fire in The Mackintosh Building at The Glasgow School of Art on 15th June 2018.
This item was assessed for conservation in 2010 as part of the Mackintosh Conservation and Access Project (2006-2010).
This single spindle is from the curved back rail of a Windsor chair, formerly in the library of Glasgow School of Art. Designed for the Library at Glasgow School of Art. A more elegant version of the windsor chairs designed for the Dutch Kitchen at Argyle Street (Billcliffe 1906.49). These chairs proved much too delicate for their original purpose; only eight of approximately forty have survived, and all of these have had to be reinforced. They were replaced in the GSA Library c1950 by the much sturdier chairs originally designed for the Ingram Street Tea Rooms, MC/F/67. The Ingram Street Tea Rooms were purchased by Glasgow Corporation in 1951 for £25,000 and were then rented out as various shops and warehouses.
