Modern Dining Chair with Sloped Back in Cream Cotton-Linen

The back drops away in a single slope from crest to seat on this Modern Dining Chair, sweeping down into low arms that continue the same line rather than breaking it. Cream cotton-linen covers back and seat in one continuous, unfussy sweep, with no buttoning or contrast welt to interrupt the surface. The shape is the whole of the design, which is why it stays calm from every angle.

The chair stands 35 inches high overall, low enough to sit beneath the sightline of a room and keep an open plan from feeling crowded. At 21 inches wide and 26 inches deep, the seat is generous for a side chair, sized for long sitting rather than perching. Legs are maple finished black and tapered toward the floor, thin enough to keep the base visually light under all that upholstery.

Cream on black is a quiet pairing that settles into a modern room without asking for attention, and it works at a walnut table as readily as at a pale plank one. Use a run of them around a rectangular table where the low backs keep the view across the room open, or move a single chair to a desk or a bedroom corner where the sloped line reads as comfort.
