Stephens took the standard armchair and elevated it with keen grace. The simple scoop shape of the chair and the corner-less legs work seamlessly to create this organic modern form. Features gorgeous bentwood frames updated with a natural color stain, paired with black naugahyde upholstery. Marked to underside of one frame.
