At 37 cm the seat is the lowest in the range and the back reclines further than any other chair we make. It is a chair to sink into with a book, and it is a chair you climb out of rather than stand up from. We say so on every page where it appears.

The straps that carry the arm cushions are vegetable-tanned leather. They start pale and darken to tan within a year, and they stretch a few millimetres and then stop.

The things about this piece and its materials that people most often wish they had known first.

  • Seat height 37 cm: very low; not suitable for anyone with knee or hip trouble
  • Leather straps darken and stretch slightly in the first year
  • Loose cushions slide forward when you get out; push them back
  • Bouclé snags on claws and buckles
  • Oak darkens with light and the straps with handling, so the chair changes colour over a year

I measured the door against the number on the page and it went through on its side with four centimetres to spare, exactly as promised. The two delivery men were polite and quick.

The linen creases, as the page said it would. I have stopped noticing. What I notice is that the seat has not sagged at all in fourteen months.

Firmer than it looks and the oak has gone a shade darker already. Both of those were written in the list under Before you buy, which I read after it arrived. Read it before.
