Know before you buy
The swivel base is designed for smooth, effortless 360-degree rotation. It performs reliably on both hard surfaces like wood or tile and low-pile area rugs, though we recommend a rug pad if placing it on a slick floor to ensure stability.
This specific blend provides a 'sink-in' feel that is softer than standard high-density foam alone. The feathers offer plush, cloud-like comfort, while the ball fiber helps the cushions maintain their shape and loft over time.
Yes, the Dawson features loose seat cushions, which allows you to easily rotate them or fluff them to maintain their shape. This design also makes it simpler to clean crumbs or debris from the crevices of the chair.
With dimensions of 50 inches wide and 40 inches deep, this is a substantial, oversized piece. Be sure to account for the swivel clearance, as you will need a bit of extra room around the perimeter to rotate comfortably without hitting nearby furniture.
Absolutely. The frame is constructed using a combination of engineered wood, hardwood, and softwood with pinned and glued joints, which is a hallmark of high-quality furniture construction designed to withstand years of regular sitting.
The single top stitching provides a clean, tailored finish that prevents the fabric or leather from looking too bulky. It adds a subtle, modern detail that keeps the exaggerated, pillowy shape of the chair looking refined rather than messy.
