House Note · About this piece

Pleating, fabric folded into narrow, even tucks, is a dressmaker's technique that upholsterers have long borrowed, and it found a natural home in the glamorous interiors of the 1930s, where velvet, gilt and soft folds set the tone for evening entertaining.

This chair has a rounded back that slopes into low arms, comfortable to rest against, and its outer back is pleated from top to bottom in fine vertical folds. Dense foam padding sits over a frame of wood and plywood, and the cover is stain-resistant performance velvet, a cut-pile cloth with a soft sheen that takes everyday spills in its stride, in Pewter or Chambray. Four brushed brass stainless steel legs splay outward to non-marking caps, with a matching brass pull on the back to draw it out.

Because the pleats are on the back, it looks its best where it is seen from behind: at a desk in the middle of a room, or at the head of a dining table facing the door. It also suits a vanity, a bedroom or an entryway. Set it against a deep teal or oxblood wall with a brass desk lamp, a leather blotter and a vase of tall grasses. This listing is for one chair.
