Pilgrim slat chairs were popular during the American Colonial Era. Also called Shaker or ladderback chairs, these streamlined pieces have become a classic antique chair style. During the 1600s, this simple style featured turned stiles and spindles and flat slats on the back of the chair. A variation was the ladderback, which had a back that looked like a ladder. Furniture makers constructed the wooden chairs out of oak, walnut, or pine, and the chairs often featured rush seats. Not all chairs had arms, but they were common.
The slat back chair is one of the most traditional types of chair backs. Very indicative of mission styling, this classic design features a rectilinear form and vertical slats. The slatted look is timeless and is often found in casual dining rooms or kitchen nooks.
