More About This Item
There is a specific moment in a room's composition when the eye lands on a pair of Ralph Lauren wicker wingbacks and the whole thing clicks. These chairs — tall, architecturally confident, with the oversized wingback silhouette translated into natural wicker — have that effect. They are unmistakably themselves. No one is making chairs quite like this anymore, and fewer people still are finding pairs of them in this condition with new upholstery already done.

The upholstery update is significant here: fresh Ralph Lauren herringbone green fabric on both cushioned seats and the appropriate interior surfaces brings these chairs into the present with their heritage fully intact. The herringbone pattern is a Ralph Lauren signature weave — one of those textile choices that feels simultaneously sporting, traditional, and completely current. Against the natural wicker of the frame, the green reads as coastal without being cute, English without being stiff, tropical without being literal.

Brass casters on the legs make these chairs movable — a small but meaningful detail that reflects the indoor/outdoor, flexible-use sensibility that Ralph Lauren's design approach always embraced. Use them inside near a window, on a screened porch, in a sunroom, or anywhere a room needs the kind of personality that only a named, collected piece of furniture can provide.

Design Style
British Colonial at its most considered, with the Ralph Lauren Lodge inflection that the brand developed into one of the most coherent and beloved residential aesthetics of the late 20th century. The wicker wingback is a form that Ralph Lauren made his own — taking the high-backed, sheltering wingback silhouette and translating it into a material that evokes verandahs, plantation houses, and the well-traveled life that has always been central to the Ralph Lauren brand mythology.

In herringbone green upholstery, these chairs work as beautifully in a coastal American interior as in a traditional English Country room or a tropical-adjacent living space. They're the kind of piece that interior designers describe as "doing all the work" — arriving in a room with a fully formed aesthetic point of view that elevates everything around them.

Brand Legacy
Ralph Lauren's home collection, which began in the 1980s and expanded through partnerships with manufacturers including Henredon, brought his lifestyle storytelling into residential furniture with remarkable consistency and success. Ralph Lauren wicker pieces developed a devoted collector following. The manufacturer's labels under each chair are the authentication that confirms these are the genuine article in a category where the Ralph Lauren aesthetic has been widely imitated. See less
