Seat upholstery. The Wilshire seat and back pad are covered in nubuck PPM, a polyurethane performance leather with a soft, suede-like surface that wipes clean.

Frame finish

The Wilshire is a sculptural dining armchair carved from solid ash, finished in walnut, with arms that sweep out from the back and down into the front legs in one fluid line. A padded seat and a floating back pad in medium grey nubuck PPM add comfort without hiding the woodwork. It is the kind of chair that anchors a dining room or a hotel restaurant, where guests notice the frame as much as the table. The open, Mid-Century-inspired structure keeps it visually light despite its 24 in width.

• Measure your table apron: the arms need clearance to slide under.
• Pair two Wilshire armchairs at the ends with Trapani chairs along the sides for a matched ash-and-walnut look.
• Keep solid wood away from radiators and long direct sun.
• Shipping: in-stock chairs ship in 3 to 5 business days. If your seat and frame combination is out of stock or on its way to our warehouse, please allow 10 to 15 weeks for it to ship.

Who it is not for

• Outdoor use
• Anyone who needs a stacking chair

Care

Wipe faux leather and PPM with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, then dry. Vacuum fabric seats regularly and blot spills right away. Dust the wood with a dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Wood, leather and fabric vary naturally in grain and shade from piece to piece.
