At a formal table the two chairs with arms traditionally stood at the ends, for the host and hostess, a custom as familiar in French dining rooms as in English ones. In England the armchair at the top of the table came to be called the carver, after the person who sat there to carve the joint.
This one is fully upholstered in a soft slubbed fabric, with a tailored shape, a gently sloping arm that sweeps down from the back, and a straight, supportive back. Foam padding sits over a frame of solid wood for a comfortable seat through a long dinner, and the arms give you something to lean on and push up from. Four straight solid wood legs, in a natural or dark finish depending on the colour, lift it clear of the floor on non-marking glides. It is rated to hold 300 lbs, and it is assembled at home.
Use a pair at either end of a dining table with simpler side chairs between, or set one by a bedroom window as a reading seat with a small table and a lamp. It is equally at home in a living room as extra seating when guests arrive. Flax, Mink and Cream all sit easily with natural linen, pale wood and a creamy limewash wall.
