Know before you buy
The swivel mechanism is designed for fluid, effortless movement, allowing you to rotate a full 360 degrees without resistance. It is built to handle frequent use while maintaining a stable, quiet motion.
The down-blend wrap provides a soft, sink-in feel that is more luxurious than standard foam. Because the cushions are loose, you can easily fluff them to maintain their shape and comfort over time.
Yes, the Pearce armchair is rated as Contract Grade, meaning it is built to meet rigorous standards for durability and structural integrity. The engineered wood frame with mortise-and-tenon joinery ensures it can withstand daily use in busy households.
The chair measures 45 inches wide and 40 inches deep. You should ensure you have enough clearance for the 24-inch swivel base to rotate freely without hitting nearby furniture or walls.
The seat is supported by no-sag steel sinuous springs, which provide consistent tension and prevent the cushions from bottoming out. This system works with the down-blend cushions to offer a balance of plush comfort and firm structural support.
Yes, the chair features loose seat and back cushions. This design makes it easy to rotate the cushions for even wear or to remove them if you need to spot-clean the upholstery.
