A Seat Edged in Cord

The Sunflower dining chairs arrive as a coordinated set of four, each built with the back and the seat as two separate upholstered pieces rather than a single shell. The seat is a rounded pan with a cord sewn into its full outline, standing proud of the surface where the fabric wraps the rim, and the back rises behind it as its own panel, tapering toward a rounded crown. Faux suede covers both in a mottled finish that lightens across the open faces and darkens toward every edge and fold. Four tapered steel legs in matte black splay outward from the underside with nothing bridging them, entering the seat pan directly and narrowing to a floor pad at each tip.

Features

• Detached Back and Seat builds the two as separate upholstered pieces rather than one continuous shell, so the back stands clear behind the seat with daylight passing between them
• Corded Seat Edge sews a raised cord into the full outline of the seat pan, catching light as a defined line where the fabric wraps the rim and holding the upholstery edge down
• Distressed Faux Suede covers both pieces in a mottled finish worked light across the open faces and darker toward the edges, so no two panels across the four read exactly alike
• Rounded Seat Pan curves the seat on all sides with no square corner anywhere, padded over a high-resilience core that gives under weight and comes back
• Tapered Crown Back narrows the back panel toward a rounded top edge, keeping the upright line slim above the wider seat below
• Tapered Steel Legs splay outward in matte black powder coating, entering the seat pan directly with no stretcher or apron bridging them
• Anti-Slip Floor Pads close off the base of each leg to grip hardwood, tile and laminate quietly and keep the frame steady across different floors
• Coordinated Set of Four seats a standard four-seater in one purchase, sized to sit two chairs along each side of a table

Care Instructions

• Vacuum the faux suede regularly with a soft brush attachment on low suction to lift dust from the nap
• Brush the nap gently in one direction with a soft dry brush so the surface reads even across the seat and back
• Work lightly over the darker mottled areas, where the distressed finish sits in the surface layer and can lift under pressure
• Draw a soft cloth along the corded edge of the seat, where crumbs and dust collect in the recess beside the raised line
• Spot-clean marks with a cloth barely dampened in mild upholstery cleaner, blotting rather than rubbing
• Test any cleaner on a hidden section of the seat first, and let the surface air-dry rather than working heat over it
• Keep the chairs out of prolonged direct sunlight to preserve the mottled tones over time
• Keep standing moisture off the seat and back, since the engineered core swells if water reaches it through a seam
• Wipe the powder-coated legs with a soft damp cloth and dry immediately to prevent water spotting
• Check and retighten the leg bolts every few months, and keep the chairs on a level floor
