Know before you buy
The chair is designed to be easily assembled without the use of tools. Its clever construction relies on a friction-based system that allows the frame to be put together or taken apart quickly.
The canvas option offers a more casual, textured aesthetic that is highly durable, while the leather upholstery provides a more formal, luxurious feel that will develop a unique patina over time.
With a seat height of 13.4 inches, this chair sits lower to the ground than a standard dining chair. It is designed for relaxed lounging, though taller individuals may find the lower profile requires a bit more effort when standing up.
The saddle leather is a natural material that will darken and soften with use. You can keep it in good condition by occasionally wiping it with a dry cloth and avoiding direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent uneven fading.
Yes, the foam-filled cushion is separate from the frame. This allows you to easily adjust its position or remove it if you prefer a more minimalist look.
