Most chairs look better in a showroom than they do after six months of actual use, and most people have at least one in their home that proves this. The chair that wobbles slightly. The one that looked perfect online and sits completely wrong. The accent chair that no one ever actually sits in because it is not comfortable enough to bother with. We have been paying close attention to what makes a chair earn its place in a room rather than just occupy space in it.

What we look for is the combination that is harder to find than it should be: a chair that is well made, properly proportioned, comfortable enough for a long evening, and good looking enough to anchor a room. Not just functional. Not just pretty. Both.

We have included dining chairs, reading chairs, occasional chairs that work harder than the name suggests. Different budgets, different styles, one shared quality. These are chairs people actually choose to sit in.
