Janice Feldman for Janus et Cie Amari Outdoor Low Back Lounge Chairs - Pair - Limestone Finish
Elevate your patio, terrace, or poolside with this iconic pair of Amari Low Back Lounge Chairs from the global leader in luxury outdoor living, Janus et Cie. Designed by the brand’s visionary founder, Janice Feldman, the Amari collection is a modern classic, celebrated by interior designers for its seductive, organic curves and intricate, hand-woven texture. The chairs feature a sophisticated "Limestone" finish, a crisp and cool neutral that reflects sunlight beautifully while harmonizing with both contemporary and coastal landscapes. The architectural silhouette provides the comfort of a deep-seated lounge chair without the visual bulk, making these an ideal solution for maintaining unobstructed views of your garden or horizon.
About the Company
Founded in 1978, Janus et Cie is the premier name in luxury outdoor furniture. Known throughout the design world as "the industry’s innovator," the company has set the gold standard for five-star resorts, private yachts, and elite estates globally. Janus et Cie is synonymous with unparalleled durability and a high-end aesthetic that seamlessly blends the refinement of indoor furniture with the rugged resilience required for the elements. Their commitment to material science and sustainable manufacturing has made them the first choice for the world’s leading architects and interior decorators.
Historical Significance: The Birth of the "Pinched Waist"
The Amari collection is widely considered one of Janice Feldman’s most influential contributions to the evolution of outdoor furniture. Debuted as a response to the bulky, boxy outdoor wicker of the late 20th century, the Amari introduced a fluid, "pinched waist" silhouette that brought high-fashion architectural forms to the garden. This collection helped pioneer the "Outdoor Living Room" movement, encouraging homeowners to treat the terrace as a primary aesthetic space rather than a secondary utility area. Today, the Amari remains a permanent fixture in the annals of modern outdoor design, representing a transition toward more sculptural, organic forms in high-performance furniture.
Material Science: Engineered for the Elements
These chairs are engineered to museum-quality standards using the proprietary JANUScoat system—a superior marine-grade powder-coating applied to a robust interior aluminum frame. The exterior is meticulously hand-wrapped in JANUSfiber, a high-density, recyclable polyethylene that is specifically engineered to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations and intense UV exposure without fading, cracking, or losing its structural tension. This material offers the look and feel of natural fiber with a durability that allows it to thrive in harsh coastal or tropical environments for decades.

Condition Report
This matched pair is in excellent vintage condition, exhibiting only minimal signs of use consistent with light outdoor display in a protected environment. The hand-woven JANUSfiber remains exceptionally tight, supple, and entirely free of breaks, fraying, or UV-related brittleness. The marine-grade powder-coated aluminum feet are in great shape with only minor, invisible scuffing on the undersides from placement. Please note that the original cushions are not included; however, the ergonomic tension of the hand-weave provides significant comfort on its own, and custom cushions can be easily ordered through the manufacturer for a bespoke look.
Designer’s Note: The Sightline Essential
The Amari's hallmark is its signature pinched waist and flared backrest, which creates a visual lightness that prevents an outdoor space from feeling cluttered. In a high-end landscape, these function as functional sculptures. For a curated 2026 "Resort Chic" look, style these with a minimalist travertine side table or a sculptural ceramic garden stool. The Limestone finish acts as a perfect "intellectual neutral," allowing the natural textures of your stone-work or the blue of a pool to become the primary color story. Because of their low-back profile, they are the "sightline essential" for placement in front of glass railings or overlooking an ocean view.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a verified pair of Janice Feldman designs at a fraction of the original showroom price. Offering the perfect synthesis of high-style architectural presence and the undeniable durability that Janus et Cie is famous for, this set brings immediate "Aman-style" glamour to the modern home. Whether you are outfitting a new construction or refreshing a private veranda, these Amari chairs are a blue-chip investment in the art of outdoor living.
