Surrey Ellis Brown Strap Back Chair

Yes, this chair is specifically designed for lingering over meals. The unique strap back is upholstered in soft beige fabric, offering a flexible and supportive feel that conforms slightly to the sitter, unlike a rigid wooden back. This is paired with a matching upholstered seat cushion that provides tailored refinement and essential padding, making it an excellent choice for frequent entertainers who value long-term comfort.

Based on our expertise in furniture care, we recommend regular dusting of the mango veneers with a soft, dry cloth to preserve the finish. For the beige fabric, it is best to address spills immediately by blotting with a clean, damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, a light detergent or mild soap mixed with warm water can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage both the fabric fibers and the wood’s signature brown finish.

This piece is expertly crafted with brown mango wood veneers, a material favored in high-quality furniture for its dense grain and natural resilience. The signature mid-century modern tapered legs and back posts are designed not just for aesthetic appeal but to provide a stable, poised foundation. Furthermore, the use of veneers helps provide a consistent, beautiful finish that is less susceptible to the warping or cracking sometimes found in solid wood pieces exposed to indoor temperature shifts.

Furniture in coastal or humid environments requires thoughtful material choices. Mango wood is a tropical hardwood that is naturally well-suited to handle varying humidity levels. The fabric used in this chair is tightly tailored to the frame, which helps maintain its shape. To ensure the longest lifespan in high-humidity areas, we recommend maintaining a consistent indoor temperature and keeping the chairs away from direct sunlight to prevent the finish from fading.

This chair is an exceptional choice for smaller living spaces. Its mid-century modern profile features "visually light" tapered legs and an open strap-back design, which helps the room feel more airy and open rather than cluttered. Because it is armless, it has a narrower footprint that allows it to slide completely under the table, freeing up valuable floor space in compact apartments or breakfast nooks.

One of the premium benefits of this item is that it arrives fully assembled. When you choose our full-service delivery, our team handles the heavy lifting and places the furniture directly into your dining room. This ensures that the structural integrity of the tapered legs and signature strap back is maintained to professional standards from the moment it enters your home.

To ensure a comfortable dining experience, seat height and clearance are key factors. This chair features a 20-inch seat height, which is ideal for standard 30-inch dining tables, providing the recommended 10 to 12 inches of legroom between the seat and the tabletop. With a width of 20.5 inches and a streamlined armless design, these chairs can be easily tucked in when not in use, allowing you to maximize seating without overcrowding your dining area.
