Aldwyn Armchair Carbon Stripe

The Aldwyn Armchair Carbon Stripe takes the same easy ash frame and dresses it in a striped weave. From across the room the stripe reads as a soft grey; up close you catch the clean dark line running through it.

It suits a room that already has a bit of contemporary edge, a garden room, or a window seat with decent light. The fabric blends viscose, polyester and a touch of linen, so it feels soft and keeps a low sheen.

The cushions are fixed rather than loose, which gives the chair a neat, tailored line. To care for it, run a soft dry cloth over the ash and give the seat a weekly vacuum.

An Elcot Coffee Table alongside turns it into a proper place to sit with a coffee and not rush off.
