Wennes Blue Arm Chair

When measuring for a dining setup, consider both seat height and arm clearance. This chair features a seat height of 19.75", which pairs perfectly with standard dining tables (usually 28-30" high) to provide the recommended 10-12 inches of legroom. Its sophisticated panel arms are designed with a modern, streamlined profile to help the chair slide closer to the table edge, which is especially useful for saving space in urban apartments or compact dining nooks.

This chair is strategically designed with a dual-material approach for both luxury and practicality. The front is upholstered in leatherette, a durable and wipeable material that makes cleaning food or drink spills simple with just a soft cloth and mild soap. The back features a fine velvet, providing a plush, high-end look while remaining resilient. This combination is ideal for high-traffic households that want a modern aesthetic without sacrificing ease of care.

Designed for those who enjoy long dinner parties or use their dining space for work, this chair offers an ergonomic solid back and supportive panel arms. The solid back provides consistent spinal support, while the panel arms offer a comfortable resting place for the elbows, reducing shoulder strain. The high-density cushioning and 19.75-inch seat height ensure you remain comfortably supported throughout extended periods of sitting.

Absolutely. A popular design strategy is using these armchairs as "host chairs" at the head and foot of the table to create a focal point, then pairing them with armless side chairs along the sides. To maintain a cohesive aesthetic, you can pair this item with the Wennes side chair collection, which features the same rich beech wood legs and color-matched upholstery for a polished, professional interior design look.

For a comfortable dining experience that avoids overcrowding, we recommend allowing approximately 24 inches of space per person. Since this armchair has a width of 24.25 inches, it is a substantial piece that provides a generous seating area. When planning your layout, ensure there is at least 36 inches of clearance between the back of the chair and any walls or nearby furniture to allow guests to move in and out of the seat with ease.

The legs of this chair are crafted from solid beech wood, a material highly regarded in premium furniture making for its exceptional density and shock resistance. Unlike softer woods, beech is a hard, strong timber that resists wear and tear over time, ensuring the chair remains stable and sturdy. The natural grain of the beech wood adds a layer of organic sophistication that complements the modern velvet and leatherette upholstery.
