Vintage Chair with Wooden Arms

Vintage Chair with Wooden Arms

The armrests and frame on this vintage chair are made of solid poplar wood. Its seat and back cushions are covered with high-resilience sponge foam for a comfortable seat. The cushions are upholstered in a breathable polyester blend and come in beige, blue or white.

Designer Advice:

This vintage chair is engineered with a unique mid-century modern style that’s both Scandinavian and hygge. Its small scale — 25” wide by 31” deep — makes it good to use as an accent chair. Lightweight and easy to move, you can place it in a bedroom and bring it into your living room for extra seating.
