Its early 20th-century proportions—rounded arms and birch legs with brass castors—read as understated English heritage rather than fussy reproduction. The seafoam linen gives it a softer, more contemporary edge than you'd expect from the traditional silhouette, making it work equally well in period schemes or modern interiors. Best suited to living rooms or studies where it can anchor a seating arrangement without dominating the space. The linen will develop a lived-in patina over time, which adds to its appeal—just brush regularly to manage dust settling into the weave.
