How to Find Adirondack Lounge Chairs

In 1903, Thomas Lee had a summer home in Westport, New York by the Adirondack Mountains, a 22-member family and not enough outdoor furniture. So he made some chairs, and the story might have ended there except he showed his design to a local carpenter, Harry Bunnell. Bunnell, without Lee's knowledge, patented the design. He made and sold the chairs for years, calling them Westport chairs. They are now popular across the U.S. as Adirondack chairs.
