Brass-headed nails have finished good upholstery since the seventeenth century, when upholsterers drove them in close rows along a chair's edges to hold the cover and draw its outline. A dining chair dressed that way still looks properly made, as at home in a Georgian dining room as in a modern one.
These are upholstered in a stain-resistant performance velvet, a cut-pile cloth with a deep sheen, in a choice of two shades; it keeps velvet's richness while forgiving the odd splash at dinner. The hourglass back is outlined in nailheads, and the broad seat is dense foam over sinuous springs, wavy steel springs laid across the frame that give a lively, supported sit. Tapered dark wood legs end in non-marking caps.
Velvet looks its best in lamplight: place the pair at a dark wood table set for a dinner party, or use them as accent chairs in a living room either side of a console, or in a home office where one serves at the desk and the other waits for a visitor. A drinks tray, a stack of records and walls of deep teal make the velvet sing. This listing is for a set of two chairs.
