The Hickory Chair Furniture Co. began one hundred and ten years ago in Hickory, North Carolina with a single product and a simple vision. The product was a made-to-order dining chair. The vision was to combine the authenticity of classic craftsmanship with the efficiency of modern manufacturing. In the decades since, the product range has evolved into an assortment of timeless designs, drawn from significant periods and places, and from the talents of some of the world's most respected designers. The style is still distinguished by an authentic, timeless spirit and the furniture is still proudly made to order and made to last, by a team of talented and attentive artisans in the Hickory, North Carolina workroom.

The James River Collection is the industry's longest furniture collection. Made since 1941, Hickory Chair has provided classic forms inspired by the antiques found in the elegantly appointed interiors of historic estates found along the James River in Virginia. This lovely collection recaptures the spirit and details that embody the fine aesthetics of 18th Century design including balance in scale, refinement in shapes and lines, intricate inlays and crisp carvings, acanthus leaves, shells, and ball and claw feet. Over the years the collection has evolved to remain relevant by creating new pieces that blend not only with the existing collection but celebrate the fresh style of the time.
