Padded dining chairs were a mark of a comfortable house by the eighteenth century, when upholsterers began stuffing seats for the long dinners of the age. The mid-twentieth century gave the form a softer, more sculpted outline, with a back that curves to hold the shoulders through a long meal.
Each chair has a tall back that curves round the shoulders and flares gently at the top, over a deep seat cushion, padded throughout in dense foam that holds you comfortably through a long dinner. They are upholstered in a performance velvet that resists stains, so a dropped spoon of sauce is easily dealt with, and the soft cut pile has a rich sheen. Tapered legs of solid hardwood in a dark finish carry them, with non-marking caps to protect the floor, and each chair is rated to hold 300 lbs.
Amber, a warm cognac brown, looks like worn saddle leather in the light. Set the pair at a round table in a dining nook or kitchen, use them as accent chairs either side of a fireplace, or place one in an entryway and one at a bedroom dressing table. Walnut, cream walls and brass candlesticks suit them. This listing is for a set of two chairs.
