Cellulose sanding sealer works well, spray then sand and spray again. Then use a acrilic laquer on top. I've only used this combo indoors so don't know what it is like outdoors.

Beautiful craftsmanship there Just a few thoughts : would it need side supports on the legs as when you get on a chair and slide forwards and backward there are forces pushing on the legs?? Also the small supports on the front of the chair i would of steam bent it abit just to go with the flow of your chair, just a few thoughts like i said -
For something like that i would pay £20-£30 depending on how far i need to travel but to me its just a pile of wood with nothing done to it. What makes me angry is when people add the word woodturning/carving in the description they think they can add an extra £100 or so to the price, when its me or other turners who turn it into something beautiful. Rant over (rant not aimed at anyone here)
