At this house-sit, we are very close to another property where we stayed. Both places have things made from horse-shoes. I wrote about the horse-shoe horse which is at the other place. You can see a photo of it here if you want: https://www.mylot.com/post/3521691/a-horse-made-of-horse-shoes
At this house, a fancy seat has been welded from iron horse-shoes. It’s okay but not my favourite piece of farm art. And I think you would need nice thick cushions on the seat and up the back before it would be comfortable.

I like the originality. I suppose that’s much better than throwing the old shoes away, and many people would enjoy it as a “conversation piece.” Even, as you said, if it took six-inch-thick cushions to make it comfortable enough to sit on.

I was going to say I'd want lots of cushions before I sat in that chair.

@JudyEv We had some outside furniture made from Shetland pony shoes when we lived on the farm. We still put cushions on them before sitting on them, though.

I would think so too. Looks uncomfortable.

I recall the neat horse in a precious post. I do think this chair is neat but not very pretty and nothing I’d want. You are right doesn’t look very comfortable either. Would look nice maybe with a huge blooming flower pot sitting on the seat.

It looks cool, but as you said, it probably wouldn't be very comfortable.

May be they bring their cushions if they want to sit there.
