AFFINITY TRADITIONAL CAPTAIN’S CHAIR (ATCC)

There is no better way to honor a recent graduate, a proud alumna or alumnus, a retiring faculty member, or a dedicated employee or board member.

Instead of the high-volume, factory-made college chairs parts of which are milled overseas, consider our Amish captains chair of solid maple and solid cherry wood….Amish-made and finished in our small Amish shops Northeastern Ohio.

Our Traditional Captains Chair is the most skillfully constructed university chair available.  Please compare carefully the structure of this wooden captains chair with arms versus other chairs that you may find on the market.  The structure of the legs and stretchers (cross members between legs) is optimized for strength, durability, and many years of beauty and service.  With the addition of custom brass plates on the rear of your  chair, you can enjoy a personalized Captains Chair.  This wooden captains chair makes perfect gifts for medical students and perfect gifts for medical residents.

Our Traditional Captains Chair with arms and crown of solid cherry is unique in the industry.  The natural grain of cherry is far more attractive than chairs that have maple arms stained to merely look like cherry.  Finishes include Black Lacquer or any of the many Ohio Certified Stains.  Finishes are available along with choices of Gold Hand-striping, Silver Hand-striping, or No Hand-striping.  These chairs are absolutely superior in design, structure, and finish to any Captains Chair with arms that you will find in college bookstores.   Our Amish captain’s chair compares favorably to maple used in the Hitchcock college chair and every other captain’s chair on the market.

Unless you request otherwise, your ATCC university chairs are produced without a logo or college seal.  However, if you would like for your captains chair to represent your college or university, we can install the desired image at an additional charge, providing we gain permission of your institution to be represented by your chair.

All brilliant gold or bright silver hand-striping highlights are carefully painted by hand to match the colors of the logos. Clients who prefer logos in official school colors can request logos installed by our TrueColor Logos process.

 Note: Customers who choose Arms, Crown, Arms & Crown, or an Entire Chair in any of these stains should be aware that the chair is considered to be a custom chair.  We ask customers to be certain of their color choices.  Any changes to color after a college chair has been completed is costly.  Although Alumni Chairs may be able to make those changes, requests to change colors after delivery can only be satisfied at the expense of the customer, including labor, materials, shipping, and any other appropriate expenses.  Therefore, we always encourage customers to be certain of their color choices before ordering and discuss colors with us before ordering stained captain’s chairs and chair parts.

Although we provide the above color swatches (samples) the actual colors of stains can vary greatly.  Stains vary from one mixture to another.  Also, individual pieces of wood can absorb and display stains differently.   The beauty of our captain’s chairs with cherry arms and crowns is that our arms and crowns are made of solid cherry.

This chair normally requires 3-6 weeks for completion, depending on features requested.

Alumni Chairs’ competitors do not finish their entire chairs.  They leave the underside of their chairs raw, rough, and unfinished.  Unlike other companies, Alumni Chairs, is committed to finish ALL surfaces of its captain’s chairs.  We create a beautiful finish under or chairs including under the seat and the arms.  Simply turn over our chairs and see the difference…and our brass company plates and personal signature.  Every chair is signed!
