A charming set of six early 19th century French ladderback dining chairs from Normandy, hand carved from solid walnut and dating to the 1830s. These chairs exemplify the rustic elegance and enduring craftsmanship of provincial French furniture, particularly from the Normandy region — an area long celebrated for its quality oak and walnut, and its traditional joinery techniques passed down through generations of rural artisans.

 

Each chair features a bold ladderback design with arched horizontal slats, turned stiles topped with rounded finials, and turned stretchers connecting all four legs for added strength and stability. The slightly oversized proportions and gently splayed rear legs reflect the practical considerations of country life — built for comfort, durability, and everyday use. The rush seats are woven in a classic chevron pattern and retain their warm, golden tones, harmonizing beautifully with the rich patina of the walnut frames.

 

Chairs like these were staples in 19th century Norman farmhouses and manoirs, used around long trestle tables for daily meals or family gatherings. Their robust forms and straightforward design embody the spirit of French provincial furniture — honest, hardworking, and unpretentious, yet beautifully balanced and enduring in style.

 

The deep, timeworn patina of the walnut frames adds is only achieved after decades of use and polishing. These ladderback chairs are both functional and decorative, ready to bring warmth, character, and a touch of rural French heritage to today’s interiors — whether gathered around a farmhouse table or used as accent chairs in a cozy breakfast nook.

this is the book you’re looking for
Format: Paperback
I’d just finished reading Jules Gil-Peterson’s A Short History and felt a little unsatisfied and uncomfortable with all the orientialism. I picked this up and was immediately sure I had the antidote. Bhatt is clear, direct, and uncompromising. She avoids filler and gets right to the heart of things—“how is this not like blackface?” gets dealt with more thoroughly and decisively than I have ever seen it within the first few pages. She reveals the transmisogyny lurking in even nominally queer social and intellectual movements, and also finds pockets of beautiful solidarity and common ground in some surprising places. Above all, her love for women shines through every word. This book cleared up some misconceptions I had, made me cry, and will make me a better partner and comrade to trans women. Buy it.

Excellent essays in a brilliant book
Format: Paperback
This is a really excellent book. A lot of anthologies of essays have great essays in them, as this one does, but not all of them work as well as a cohesive text as Trans/ Rad/Fem does. I'd recommend this for anyone interested in transfeminism, even if you'd already read individual essays from Bhatt's newsletter by the same name. As with the essays in their newsletter format, The Third Sex and The Questions Has an Answer were my favorite. Bhatt's writing has such force and clarity that I look forward to reading whatever she chooses to write about next.

Absolutely brilliant
Format: Kindle
An absolute tour de force reckoning with decades of feminist scholarship and theorizing about trans feminine bodies and motivations. Succinctly and pithily describes the hegemonic culture’s understanding of transsexual women and demands an accounting from the hegemony’s enablers on their treatment of all marginalized queer and especially trans people.

Bhatt Writes Like a Freight Train Barreling Towards You
It's just hit after hit after hit. It's some of the punchiest writing I've ever read, conceived from a combination of a mastery over the written word and enough righteous indignation to burn a star out. Perfection. If you brought back Simone de Beauvoir today, after she stopped screaming at the sight of a computer, I think she'd thoroughly enjoy this. Rigorous and bracing as a read. Has its place in the modern feminist canon.
