I wanted a high back chair that was substantial but did not have bulky arms, this fit the bill. The fabric is a lovely, true grey, velvet. It does the job I want, visually separating the foyer from the living room without making either feel crowded.
A few things to note:
The chair is ready to go out of the box and it was packed very well.
The silver metal caps on the legs were not assembled with care, bits of glue mar the top junctions. It's a shame, truly.
This chair sits very deep! A lumbar pillow, or two, is a must.
I love this chair, I've just got some work to clean up the legs so it looks like it should!
