Leather Wingback Dining Chairs in Black, Sets of 2
Top grain hide over backs standing 46 inches makes these Leather Wingback Dining Chairs host seats in the old sense, the kind that mark the head of a table before anyone sits down. The leather is a deep near-black, smooth and full, taking a soft sheen where arms and shoulders touch it most. Nailheads follow the frame line, and the base is oak braced with stretchers.Below the wings the seat runs 21 inches wide and 26 inches deep, room enough for hours at the table, and the height clears the tallest sitter's head with margin. That scale means two is usually the right number rather than a full run, placed at the ends where the wings can be read in profile. The oak stretchers keep the frame steady under daily use.Leather this dark anchors a pale table and settles into a dark one without argument. Put two at the ends of a long timber table with lighter side chairs between them, or use one alone beside a fireplace where the wings do the job they were designed for. They suit a room of books, wool and warm metal, and they carry a plain plaster wall well.Color variation is common and acceptable on vintage leather.
