Local metal band Altered Throne sought a stage prop for their act and brought the request to Prairie Bench.

The entire frame buckles together and can be wheeled, or broken down into four components: two sides, the back board and the seat. Hardwood plugs guide the pieces together and steel clasps lock everything in position. The seat also locks the sides together. The throne can be assembled in under a minute and is designed for strength.

Made entirely of spruce and finished in Prairie Bench’s  Storybook theme. The backboard is engraved with the band’s logo.

Altered Throne

by Prairie Bench0

 

This was designed specifically for a band’s stage prop. We enjoyed the challenge of building the six foot chair, cutting it in half and then buckling it back together. There’s four components: left and right side, the hand-carved back of a band member’s tattoo, and the seat. The construction is durable includes wheels to move the chair into position.

Spruce finished in dark walnut stain and polyurethane. Includes four steel hasps, four buckles and the seat is positioned on dowels to lock the frame as well.

Approximate dimensions: 6’x27″x27″. Seat height is at 18″.

Click on the thumbnails to see assembly.  It’s actually quicker for one person to assemble the chair in an upright position, lock, and go—takes thirty seconds.

 

 

Replica Medieval Fantasy Throne

by Prairie Bench0

This solid spruce throne with Prairie Bench Storybook finish was designed for stage shows. It is very stable and heavy, built so the performers could sit and climb all over it.

It is termed ‘a replica’ because we used metal screws for added strength. In our traditional medieval thrones we use no metal in the frame construction and they are authentic thrones. The back and seat are ground with disk sander and gouged to look battle worn. Dragon bites are also visible.
