One of America's oldest furniture manufacturers, Hitchcock Chair closed their doors after 127 years in 2006. Fortunately for all of us, in the spring of 2010, Rick Swenson and his business partner, Gary Hath, purchased the Hitchcock name, plans, and artwork. Their goal is to continue the Hitchcock legacy, bringing Hitchcock furniture into the 21st century while maintaining the quality and integrity of Lambert Hitchcock's original dream. 

This is good news for an industry that hasn't seen many of these great quality American manufacturers survive. It is especially good news for consumers.
