Palumbo I Black Arm Chair, Set of 2

Yes, these chairs are specifically designed with a contemporary, minimalist profile that works well in urban living spaces. The "open back" style and slim metal straight legs provide a sense of visual "openness," allowing light to pass through and preventing the furniture from feeling bulky or overwhelming a smaller room. Despite their comfortable armchair design, the 21.5-inch width ensures they maintain a manageable footprint.

This chair is constructed with a metal frame, which offers superior structural integrity and a high strength-to-weight ratio compared to some traditional wood frames. Metal frames are exceptionally resistant to warping in humid climates and provide a stable, wobble-free seating experience. The straight-leg design further enhances this stability, making it a reliable choice for high-traffic dining areas.

Choosing armchairs for your entire table setup prioritizes guest comfort and ergonomics. The padded arms provide essential support for the upper body, which is particularly beneficial during long dinner parties, holiday gatherings, or if the dining table doubles as a home workspace. This set of two allows you to easily bookend a table as "captain's chairs" or create a uniform, sophisticated look by using armchairs for every setting.

Polyester is an excellent high-performance material for households with pets. This synthetic fiber is known for its inherent durability and resistance to stretching and pilling. The tight weave of this fabric makes it less susceptible to snagging from claws compared to looser knits. Additionally, the solid black color is effective at concealing minor wear, though a lint roller or vacuum attachment can easily manage pet hair on the surface.

Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend blotting any liquid spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth to prevent the moisture from soaking into the padding. For remaining stains, use a mixture of mild soap and water. Our maintenance guides advise against using harsh chemical cleaners, which can damage the polyester fibers or the finish of the metal frame. Always follow a gentle dabbing motion rather than scrubbing to preserve the fabric's texture.

When planning your dining space, consider both the seat height and the arm height. These chairs feature a standard 17.5-inch seat height, which typically allows for the ideal 10 to 12 inches of legroom under most 30-inch high dining tables. Because these chairs include padded arms, we recommend measuring from the floor to the bottom of your table's apron to ensure the arms can slide underneath when the chairs are not in use, maximizing your floor space.
