Guardino Black Arm Chair

Yes. Inspired by Nordic and Danish design, this chair prioritizes ergonomics through its curved arm style and solid back. The integrated arms provide continuous support for the upper body, while the 19-inch seat height is optimized for standard dining tables. This combination makes it a versatile choice for lingering over meals or utilizing your dining area as a temporary home office.

Absolutely. At 25.5 inches wide, this chair offers the luxury and support of an armchair without the bulk of traditional formal seating. Its mid-century modern profile and straight-leg design create an "open" look that allows light to pass through, preventing a small dining nook or urban apartment from feeling visually crowded.

The Guardino is designed for versatility. In more formal dining rooms, a popular design trend is to use a pair of these arm chairs as "host chairs" at the head and foot of the table while using armless side chairs in between. However, due to its compact 25.5-inch width and streamlined Danish silhouette, using them for every seat creates a high-end, cohesive look that offers consistent comfort for all your guests.

Measuring for clearance is the most critical step for dining comfort. This chair features a 19-inch seat height and a total height of 28.5 inches. To ensure the curved arms slide seamlessly under your table, we recommend a minimum of 7 to 10 inches of space between the chair seat and the bottom of the table apron. This provides ample legroom and allows the chair to be fully tucked in when not in use.

To preserve the "breezy neutral aesthetic" of the solid black upholstery, our care guidelines recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth. For accidental food or drink spills, immediately blot the area with a clean, damp cloth and a drop of mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasives, as these can compromise the integrity of the finish and fabric.

This chair is built with a solid back and straight legs, a construction method that ensures long-term stability and resistance to wobbling. The solid upholstery pattern is particularly durable for daily use, and the black finish is excellent for masking minor wear, making it a reliable choice for busy households that don't want to sacrifice mid-century modern style.
