Solid hardwood frame, turned hardwood seat, hand-applied finish. Finish is hand-rubbed oil — the grain stays open and warms with use. Doubles as a footrest by the chair, a perch by the door, a tray-stand at dinner. Holds the corner without taking it. It earns its space.
Frame in hardwood, fill in high-density foam, upholstery hand-stitched and pulled tight. Webbing is sinusoidal — flexible across the seat, firm at the front rail. Wide arms — wide enough for a coffee cup, narrow enough to stay sculptural. Pulls weight without showing it.
Top in hardwood or marble, base in slim brass-finished metal. Marble top, when chosen, is sealed against rings before it ships. Reads as a single line from across the room. Catches morning light along the grain. It does the small job all day.
Top in solid hardwood or honed marble, set on a slim brass-finished spine. Felt feet protect the floor. The table glides instead of dragging. Compact enough to slide between chair and sofa. Built for the third coffee, not the first. It does the small job all day.
