While technically a Comb-back Arm Chair, this Triple-Back is so called because the spindles pass through the arm, the bow, and the crest.

Folklore speaks to the hanging of a betty lamp on the ear of the crest to ease the occupant at night trying to read.

Stories abound of women drying their long hair over the high crest...While all of these tales are fun and even romantic...the truth is, the crest was the first feature of the Windsor made for it's pleasant appearance only.
