The mahogany frames are crisp and architectural, with reeded sides and legs that taper into brass sabots—quiet flourishes that catch the light without asking for attention. The interior backs and sides are newly upholstered in a rich brown leather, offering structure and warmth, while the loose seat and back cushions are tailored in olive green linen and filled with down for a deliberately relaxed finish. It’s this interplay—between formality and ease, tradition and comfort—that gives the chairs their presence. They read as buttoned-up, but not uptight. Grounded, but not heavy. Equally at home in a collected library, a pulled-together den, or a quietly confident office. The kind of chairs that speak softly, but say just enough to make you look twice. See less
