The set has been finished in linseed oil and upholstered in an off-white and golden weave from Holly Hunt’s Country Estate collection. The oil finish highlights the beautiful grain patterns of the sculpted walnut frames.

With extra wide seats and plush cushions, these make for perfect reading chairs and serve equally well as bold but timeless accent pieces. The backs connect to the frames with hidden hardware, giving the impression that they are floating effortlessly above the seats.

The GB insignia is stamped on the triangular wedges that support the corners of the seat frame.
