Yes, the seat cushions are fully reversible. This allows you to rotate them periodically to ensure even wear and extend the life of the fabric.
Yes, the Thornton chair offers a custom wood finish option. This allows you to select a stain that best complements your existing furniture and decor.
The welt cording is a decorative detail along the seams of the cushions that adds a refined, tailored look. It helps define the chair's silhouette and provides a subtle visual contrast.
Yes, the chair includes accent pillows. These are designed to enhance the comfort of the seat and provide an easy way to coordinate the chair with your room's color palette.
