The Curve tree swing. Modern, fluid, without any corners in sight. A contemporary twist on the traditional tree swing.

The Curve tree swing, stylishly designed to simply be just one continuous flowing curve.  Gentle concave curves on the front and back edges make the swing gently waisted in the centre. These then gently flow into one another at each end of the swing, impossible to tell where one curve starts or finishes, its just simply one curve.

The seat itself

All of our tree swings are lovingly crafted by hand from start to finish, Curve being no exception. The finest, seasoned, english oak board is selected, planed and finished to a thickness of 38mm (32mm for Junior size) to create Curve. The swing has a slim seat profile, whilst being more than strong enough for both children and adults to enjoy. All of its edges are rounded with a gentle radius curve making it comfortable to swing on. The holes which the ropes pass through are rounded which minimises the wear on the ropes over time.

Sizes

Curve is available in four different sizes, from Junior to Adult. From the youngest member of the family to the very oldest, we can guarantee there will be a size which suits (all dimensions given in mm).

Junior: 475 x 180     Child: 550 x 200     Midi: 650 x 220     Adult: 750 x 240

The ropes

Curve incorporates the same Hempex ropes as the rest of our tree swing range does. 16mm ropes are used on the Junior and Child’s sizes, and 18mm is used for Midi and Adult sizes. The ropes used are made using traditional methods, by the Master Ropemakers at the historic dockyard in Chatham. Hempex is a synthetic hemp rope, designed to look and feel exactly the same as natural hemp, whilst being much more durable. Unlike natural hemp may, these ropes wont rot. They are soft and very comfortable to hold onto, making them perfect for use on our swings.

The ropes are cut and spliced by hand to your specification in our Suffolk workshop. The ropes can be fitted to the swing using a spliced loop or knots. The rope is passed down through one hole and up through the other and spliced into itself to form the closed loop. Or if you are after a more rustic effect you can choose the large, round knotted option.

Finish

There are three finish options available for Curve. The swings come finished in 3 coats of Danish oil as standard. The danish oil really brings out the patterns in the grain of the timber as well as helping to protect the swing from the natural elements, another option is Satin Varnish, varnish  offers a slightly more durable finish. Or you could choose to have your swing left bare sanded, the minimal maintenance option. Leaving the swing bare sanded allows it to start weathering as soon as it is placed outdoors, eventually turning your swing a gorgeous silvery grey colour.

Delivery

Delivery is free throughout our range of tree swings. We try to have your swing delivered to you within 5 working days of your order, however sometimes things may take slightly longer. Once your swing is due to be delivered you will receive tracking information. There are also some ‘in-flight’ options to ensure you have full control of your delivery. If you need your swing in a hurry or by a certain date please let us know, as we are usually able to help!

Letter carving

Letter carving is available on the top or underside of our Curve tree swings. Carving on the top/bottom of the seat means there is much more space for having a special message, name or date carved into the swing. Symbols and designs can also be carved into your swing to create a truly unique product. Unfortunately at this current time we are unable to offer carving on the front/rear edges of the swing.
