Its gently rounded arms and skirted base draw from 1940s–50s English furniture—the kind that actually improves with age. The natural linen has a relaxed, lived-in quality that softens any room without feeling precious. This works beautifully in period homes or as an anchor piece in modern spaces seeking warmth and character. Fair warning: linen develops a lovely patina over time, which some embrace and others prefer to minimize through regular vacuuming and occasional professional cleaning. Ideal for living rooms or studies where comfort matters as much as aesthetics.
