About
Scapa Crafts, makers of traditional Orkney chairs. Orkney chairs have been at the heart of island homes for centuries. Traditionally made from driftwood found on the shoreline, their distinctive oat straw backs, often hooded, provided shelter from the draughts in old stone croft houses. At Scapa Crafts we’ve been handmaking premium quality Orkney chairs for decades, carrying on this Orcadian tradition with pride, passion and attention to detail.
