The barrel chair takes its name from its shape: a back that curves round in one continuous sweep, like a section of cask. Upholstered tub and barrel chairs were well loved in the early twentieth century, especially in the Art Deco years, and they suit the dining room, where enclosing arms make a long dinner comfortable.
This one is fully upholstered, with no wood or metal on show: the curved back and arms wrap round you and run down into broad covered panels that serve as legs, with an arched opening between them. Dense foam pads the seat and back, so it stays comfortable through a long dinner or a late conversation. It is covered in chenille, a soft, tufted yarn with a velvety, slightly crushed look. Glides beneath keep it from marking the floor, it is rated to hold 330 lbs, and it comes ready to sit in, with no assembly.
In any of its five shades, set a few round a pale oak table in a dining room that looks onto the garden, with linen napkins and a pot of herbs in the middle. It is just as useful away from the table: a small chair for a bedroom corner, or a soft seat beside a reading lamp in a sitting room. Pair it with cream walls, rattan and terracotta. This listing is for one chair.
