The slipper chair began in the bedrooms of the nineteenth century: a low, armless seat for sitting to put on stockings and shoes. It suited the dining room just as well, and the rounded fronts of 1930s waterfall furniture gave it the unbroken line it has here.
Each chair is one continuous shape. The tall back runs straight into the seat, and the seat front folds over and drops to the floor like a length of heavy cloth, so no legs show at all. Dense foam pads the seat and back for a soft, supportive sit through a long dinner, over a sturdy frame, and the armless form slides neatly under the table edge. The cover is a slub weave, a fabric woven from yarn with thicker and thinner stretches, which gives a gentle, nubbly texture. Both chairs come fully assembled, ready to set at the table, each rated to hold 300 lbs, with non-marking glides to protect the floor.
Pair them at the ends of a pale oak table in a bright dining room, or either side of a round breakfast table by the window with a bowl of lemons and the morning paper. One makes a graceful seat at a bedroom vanity; the other can stand in a living room corner beside a lamp. Each shade, from pale Oyster to deep Ink, shows off the sculpted shape, and it looks lovely with limewashed walls, linen napkins and ceramic in cream and stone. This listing is for a set of two chairs.
