Shipping

1. Pick‑up
Collect your order directly from my workshop in Thames, Waikato.

2. Standard delivery
Orders are built in the order they come in. New orders join the back of the queue and move forward on a first‑in, first‑served order. Once your order is finished, I’ll deliver it when I’m already sending other orders to your region. Delivery may be by batch run or freight company—I’ll choose what’s most suitable at the time.

Standard delivery prices:

  • Northland: $375
  • Auckland: $160
  • Waikato: $135
  • Bay of Plenty: $190
  • Taranaki: $435
  • Gisborne: $365
  • Hawke’s Bay: $455
  • Manawatu–Whanganui: $560
  • Wellington: $750

3. Priority delivery
Your order jumps to the next job in the queue, behind any existing priority orders but always ahead of standard ones. This shortens your wait time but doesn’t change how it’s built. Once it’s finished, delivery works the same as Standard—I’ll choose either a batch run or a freight company, depending on what fits best.

Benefits of colour

You can choose from two colour systems: Paint or Stain. Each offers a different look and level of protection, and each suits different timbers.

Paint
Maximum protection • Uniform colour • Recommended for Pine

  • Strong UV defence
  • Durable multi‑coat system
  • Smooth, even colour
  • Resists peeling/flaking
  • Handles NZ weather
  • Shows natural grain
  • Needs basic care

Best paired with treated pine for a durable, low‑maintenance outdoor furniture finish.

Oil Stain
Natural look • Deep timber protection • Recommended for Macrocarpa

  • Penetrates and protects
  • Enhances natural grain
  • Reduces timber movement
  • Never peels or flakes
  • Easy future refresh
  • Natural colour tones
  • Slows UV silvering

Best paired with macrocarpa for a beautiful natural look that highlights the grain and character of the timber.

No assembly needed — this chair’s ready to go.
Built tough with stainless-steel screws and solid timber, it’s made to handle New Zealand weather and everyday use.

Size: 80cm wide × 1.15m deep × 90cm high

I build these to last, and I stand by every piece. If you're after something solid, local, and made with care, this one's for you.

Very Comfortable

  • Ergonomic Design

    The curves are shaped for comfort, whether you’re sitting back or stretching out. The design supports your body properly, so the chair feels good to use — solid, simple, and made to be enjoyed.

  • Smooth Surfaces

    All surfaces are sanded smooth so you won’t get splinters. It’s simply good workmanship — tidy edges, clean surfaces, and a finish that feels solid and comfortable to use.

  • No Visible Screws

    Optional finishing upgrade — just request it when ordering. Wood filler gives painted chairs a smooth, seamless look. Natural timber plugs suit stained chairs, blending neatly with the grain.

Frequently asked questions

No. Chairs arrive fully assembled.
Yes. They’re built for permanent outdoor use.
Yes. Their weight and wide stance keep them stable in typical NZ conditions.
They last longest outdoors, take paint perfectly, and offer the best value for long‑term durability.
Hand‑built chairs use heavy solid timber, skilled joinery, and stainless hardware, making them far stronger and longer‑lasting than light, screw‑together flat‑packs.
Keep them under cover, out of direct rain and sun, or store them in a shed over winter.
Cape Cod chairs are comfortable because the curved back, contoured seat, wide armrests, and heavy weight create a stable, relaxed sitting position with no cushions needed.
Treated pine lasts longer because the treatment protects it from rot, insects, and moisture.
Macrocarpa suits oil stain because the colour and grain look outstanding when oiled, and the timber absorbs oil evenly. Painted finishes hide its natural character, while treated pine can take on patchy, green‑tinted results when stained.
Stainless screws prevent rust and also make it easy to replace a single part if it’s ever damaged, instead of replacing the whole chair.
