Reder Black Arm Chair

This chair is engineered for durability, featuring a seat upholstered in soft, distressed leatherette—a high-quality synthetic material that offers the sophisticated look of leather with superior resistance to stains and wear. The matte black steel frame is powder-coated, a finishing process that creates a much harder surface than liquid paint, making it highly resistant to the chips and scratches common in busy households.

Absolutely. Using more substantial armchairs at the ends of a dining table is a hallmark of professional interior design, as it grounds the room and creates a clear focal point. These chairs are particularly well-suited for this role; their solid backs and padded arms offer the ergonomic support desired for long dinner parties, while the black powder-coated legs coordinate seamlessly with a variety of modern or transitional side chairs.

This chair is designed for efficient customer assembly. The process typically involves securing the pre-upholstered seat and back to the durable steel base. All necessary hardware and clear, step-by-step instructions are included to ensure you can have your new seating ready for use in a short amount of time.

The powder-coated steel frame used in this chair provides exceptional structural integrity and a high weight capacity that often surpasses traditional wood frames of a similar profile. Steel is also immune to warping or cracking caused by changes in humidity, making it a reliable choice for long-term stability in various home climates.

To ensure a comfortable fit, you should measure the height from the floor to the underside of your table's apron. This armchair features a total height of 34 inches and a standard seat height of 19 inches. Based on our spatial planning expertise, we recommend maintaining 10 to 12 inches of clearance between the seat and the tabletop to provide ample legroom, while the padded armrests are designed to slide under most standard-height dining tables.

This armchair is an excellent solution for urban living and compact dining nooks. With a depth of 21.5 inches and a width of 26 inches, it offers the enhanced comfort of an armrest without the oversized footprint of traditional dining chairs. Furthermore, its straight-leg steel base creates a "visual openness" that prevents small rooms from feeling cluttered or enclosed.

Maintaining this piece is straightforward due to its synthetic material composition. For the leatherette seat, we recommend regular dusting with a soft cloth and addressing spills promptly with a solution of mild soap and warm water. For the fabric back and armrests, our care guides suggest gentle spot cleaning with a damp rag. Because these materials are polyester-based, they are naturally more resistant to moisture and fading than many organic fibers.
