STANTON - Carver Dining Chair

STANTON is a dining chair in solid oak, with a gently curved backrest and a hand-woven Danish cord seat for extra comfort. This is the carver version, designed to complement the standard chair. The armrests terminate in a rounded end, meeting an extended front leg. Built to the same seat height and proportions as the standard Stanton, it's designed to sit at the head of the table.

I wanted Stanton to sit somewhere between formal and everyday - a chair that looks considered enough for a dinner party but comfortable enough to actually eat breakfast in every morning. Its inspired by chairs from the mid 20th century, but reimagined using native English oak rather than the heavier exotic timbers favoured in the past. The curved top rail is a key part of the look - it angles gently back to give the perfect seating position. It is carved entirely by hand from a single bookmatched block of oak

The seat is woven by hand in Danish cord. It is beautifully hardwearing and will stand up to years of daily use, and it gives just enough under weight to stay comfortable through a long dinner.

The legs taper to a narrow point at the floor, grounding the whole design and making sure a set of chairs doesn’t feel cluttered in your dining space. Pair it with one or more of the standard Stanton dining chairs to complete the set.
