A Dining Chair With Low Back

The Durance dining chairs arrive as a coordinated pair, each built on a rubberwood frame where the arm and the backrest work at completely different scales. From the top of each rear post, a curved arm sweeps outward and forward in one continuous length before landing on the front leg, enclosing the sitter from three sides. Behind it, the upholstered back panel is short, spanning the width of the chair at waist height with a softly rounded top edge and nothing above it. A padded seat sits into the rubberwood surround below, wrapped in the same faux leather. Four round tapered legs carry the frame, the rear pair continuing up to meet the arms. With the back stopping low and the arms carrying below the table edge, both chairs push fully out of sight when the meal is over.

Features

• Curved One-Piece Arms sweep from each rear post outward and forward to the front leg in a single length of rubberwood, closing the chair on three sides
• Low Upholstered Back Panel spans the chair at waist height with a rounded top edge, meeting the lower back rather than rising behind the shoulders
• Full Under-Table Clearance keeps both the arms and the back below a standard tabletop, so each chair pushes completely out of sight between meals
• Solid Rubberwood Frame builds the arms, legs and seat surround from natural hardwood with the grain reading through a deep warm finish
• Padded Seat in a Wood Surround seats foam cushioning into the rubberwood frame for a clean line where the upholstery meets the wood
• Faux Leather Upholstery wraps the seat and back panel in a smooth wipe-clean surface across both cushioned faces
• Round Tapered Legs narrow toward the floor on all four posts, keeping the visual weight low beneath the curved arm line
• Holds Steady to 300 Pounds per chair for confident everyday adult seating
• Coordinated Set of Two drops a matching pair into kitchens, dining rooms and apartment eating corners in one purchase

Care Instructions

• Wipe the faux leather with a soft damp cloth and a leather-safe cleaner, testing on a hidden section first
• Blot spills immediately with a clean dry cloth to keep moisture from settling into the seams
• Work a soft cloth along the channel where the upholstery meets the wood surround, since dust collects in that seam
• Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners on the faux leather, which can dull or crack the surface
• Wipe the rubberwood frame with a soft dry cloth, then apply a wood-safe polish a few times a year to protect the finish
• Pay particular attention to the arms, which take hand contact every time a chair is pulled out
• Keep the chairs out of prolonged direct sunlight to preserve both the upholstery and the wood finish
• Check the frame hardware every few months, especially where each arm meets the front leg
• Lift rather than drag each chair when repositioning, and keep the floor glides clear of grit
