Woven chair

Abstract

A woven chair is disclosed as having a frame with first and second end bars opposed from each other, the first and second end bars spanning opposed side bars, and a first end secondary bar extending parallel to the first end bar and spanning the side bars. The chair may also include a first end tertiary bar spanning the side bars. Yarn may be configured around the bars to form a woven chair. In other embodiments, a chair frame may have an outer main frame with a pair of end bars and a pair of side bars and inner framing engaged with the outer frame, the inner framing comprising a plurality of inner bars, at least one of the plurality of inner bars being adjacent to each of the end bars and side bars, each of the bars being utilized to weave yarn to form a woven chair.

         4 . The woven chair of  claim 3 , further comprising a first end tertiary bar extending parallel to said first end bar, wherein yarn may be configured around said first end tertiary bar to form a woven chair.  
     
     
         5 . The woven chair of  claim 4 , further comprising a second end secondary bar extending parallel to said second end bar and spanning said first side bar and said second side bar, wherein yarn may be configured around said second end bar to form a woven chair.  
     
     
         6 . The woven chair of  claim 5 , further comprising a second end tertiary bar extending parallel to said second end bar, wherein yarn may be configured around said second end tertiary bar to form a woven chair.  
     
     
         7 . The woven chair of claims  1 , wherein said yarn is warp yarn and weft yarn.  
     
     
         8 . The woven chair of  claim 1 , wherein said frame further comprises a plurality of attachment mechanisms, said plurality of attachment mechanisms adapted to permit attachment of said frame to a base.  
     
     
         9 . The woven chair of  claim 8 , wherein said plurality of attachment mechanisms are a plurality of bosses.  
     
     
         10 . The woven chair of  claim 1 , further comprising a rear support strut extending between said first side bar and said second side bar.  
     
     
         11 . The woven chair of  claim 10 , further comprising a front support strut extending between said first side bar and said second side bar.  
     
     
         12 . The woven chair of  claim 1 , wherein said first side bar and said second side bar are curvilinear.  
     
     
         13 . A chair frame comprising: 
 an outer main frame having a pair of end bars and a pair of side bars in continuous relation,    inner framing engaged with said outer frame, said inner framing comprising a plurality of inner bars, at least one of said plurality of inner bars being adjacent to each of said end bars and said side bars,    wherein each of said bars may be utilized to weave yarn to form a woven chair.    
     
     
         14 . The chair frame of  claim 13 , wherein said bars forming said outer main frame have a first diameter and said bars forming said inner framing have a second diameter.  
     
     
         15 . The chair of  claim 14 , wherein said first diameter is greater than said second diameter.  
     
     
         16 . The chair of  claim 13 , wherein said plurality of inner bars includes two inner bars adjacent to each of said end bars.  
     
     
         17 . The chair of  claim 13 , further comprising a support strut spanning said pair of side bars.  
     
     
         18 . The chair of  claim 17 , further comprising a second support strut spanning said pair of side bars.  
     
     
         19 . The chair of  claim 13 , further comprising attachment mechanisms associated with said outer main frame, said attachment mechanisms adapted to attach to a base.  
     
     
         20 . A method of weaving a woven chair having an outer main frame with a pair of end bars and a pair of side bars in continuous relation, and a plurality of inner bars, at least one of the inner bars being adjacent to each of the end bars and side bars, the method comprising: 
 attaching warp yarn to the inner bar adjacent the first of the side bars of the outer main frame;    wrapping the warp yarn around the first of the side bars of the outer main frame;    extending the warp yarn across the outer main frame to the second of the side bars;    wrapping the warp yarn around the second of the side bars and the adjacent inner bar;    wrapping the warp yarn around the inner bar adjacent the second of the side bars to create an offset;    wrapping the warp yarn around the second of the side bars and the adjacent inner bar; and,    extending the warp yarn back across the outer main frame to the first of the side bars.    
     
     
         21 . The method of  claim 20 , further comprising the step of weaving a weft yarn around the frame and the warp yarn to create a woven area.
