The Siringo Chair
This is an award winning masterpiece crafted of horn
and hide. The chair contains 22 horns, not counting the
veneer. The base of the chair is oak but has been
covered with horn veneer. The process of creating horn
veneer is a long and costly one and it is a process that
as far as we know has not been used on furniture for
almost 100 years. Each horn is placed with precision
resting gently against the others. Horns twist and wrap
around each other to create a truly comfortable work
of art. The Siringo Chair won the Western Spirit Award
at the Western Design Conference in Jackson Hole,
Wyoming. It is named for Texas Cowboy Charlie
Siringo (see below.)

This chair is named for Andy Adams (1859-1935). Adams drove cattle up the trails out of Texas for 10 years. After the trails
closed he tried his hand at mining and at the age of 43 wrote The Log of a Cowboy, a story of a cattle drive that is based on
many of his own experiences on the trail. He was dedicated to preserving the true story of the Drover.
"I took to the range as a preacher's son takes to vice. By the time I was twenty there was no better cow-hand in the
entire country. I could, besides, speak Spanish and play the fiddle, and thought nothing of riding thirty miles to a
dance. The vagabond temperament of the range I easily assimilated." -From The Log of a Cowboy
Charlie Siringo (1855- 1928)- During his lifetime he worked as a Cowboy, Lawman, and Detective. In 1885 he wrote
the Book A Texas Cowboy, describing himself as "an old stove up cow puncher who has spent nearly a lifetime on the
great western cattle ranges."  The first sentence of the book reads, "My excuse for writing this book is money- and lots of
it."  What follows is priceless first hand insight into the earliest years of the cattle drives. It is one of the few books
written that accurately describes life as a Cowboy in the 1870s.
