Wood Frame Armchair in Solid Walnut and Leather Designed by Craig Bassam
About the Item
The BassamFellows Wood Frame Collection has become one of the brand’s classic signatures.
Adding to the collection are upholstered dining chairs and upholstered stools.
The Wood Frame Collection was originally designed to be remarkably lightweight and sophisticated without interfering with comfort. This was achieved by reducing the form of the chair to its essence — an exposed structural fine wood frame that integrates all elements of the chair, connecting seat, back and arms while creating a ‘caged’ effect, and a system of thin, layered cushions for ultimate comfort.
The Wood Frame Dining Chairs and Stools take this concept and push them to their limits – the wood frame is even more cage like than the lounge chairs, with the members reduced to their absolute minimum. The wood elements produce the chair’s distinctive side profile and back view, two of the most important angles of any dining chair when viewed around a table. The outer corners are softly rounded, a BassamFellows signature, and the exposed rear frame becomes both a handle to maneuver the chair without touching the upholstery and a convenient place to hang a jacket or sweater.
Cushions have also been slimmed to the absolute minimum without sacrificing comfort. The backrest is structural but designed with a non-rigid upper frame to keep its profile as thin as possible while building in flex for movement. Cushions are lightly tufted for a distinctly tailored appearance.

BassamFellows
For nearly 20 years, architect Craig Bassam and creative director Scott Fellows have been redefining American luxury with their own unique modernist philosophy of “Craftsman Modern.” Building on successful careers in luxury and design, they are responsible for a collection of furniture whose distinctive style matches the most elevated craftsmanship to architectural rigor and sensual minimalism. They create aspirational products that will last generations for real, modern lives. From the outset, Bassam and Fellows had a unique idea of what a lifestyle brand could be. They aspired to an intelligent lifestyle vision. Their work would be inspired by early modernism and its appreciation for the natural environment, and be infused with the resonance of classic craftsmanship. Their work would also, crucially, be built to last – it would be an artful riposte to and rejection of the disposable nature of what architect and writer George Nelson described as “Kleenex culture”. This clarity of vision manifested itself in the company’s first collection, which debuted at the 2003 Salone del Mobile in Milan. The pieces included the seminal solid timber Tractor Stool, a contemporized version of an old Swiss tractor seat. The finished piece artfully married two disparate aesthetics: the rigorous authority of architecture and the honest, humanistic character of the handmade.

- Spindle Chair in Solid, Carved Walnut and Steel Designed by Craig BassamBy BassamFellowsLocated in Ridgefield, CTSince its release, the Spindle chair’s distinctive Silhouette has appeared in a vast array of celebrated commercial and residential interiors. The phenomenally successful piece was inspired by a visit to Louis Kahn’s Exeter Library. Designer Craig Bassam’s imagination was ignited when he noticed the traditional utilitarian chair juxtaposed against the powerful geometry of Kahn’s building. Seduced by its elemental simplicity, Bassam realized an updated spindle back chair would fit perfectly within the BassamFellows ‘Craftsman Modern’ aesthetic. The BassamFellows Spindle chair offers a new take on the Classic piece, a descendent of the Classic English Windsor chair. One first notices its weightless quality, which Bassam achieved by using metal for the chair’s legs and spindles, giving the illusion of two floating surfaces. This contemporary reboot makes the spindles less prominent, evoking a less rustic, 21st century setting for the chair. A counterpoint to the metal spindles is the chair’s timber elements, including an ultra-comfortable ergonomic seat carved from solid wood. Given its updated minimal silhouette, ultra-light materiality and concern for comfort, it’s the kind of chair you can envision in many contexts. The Spindle Collection includes counter and barstool...Category

- Modern Pair of Black and Walnut Tone Wood Accent or Dining Armchairs by HaworthBy HaworthLocated in Topeka, KSHandsome pair of walnut tone wood accent or dining armchairs with black wool-like fabric upholstery. They are in wonderful original condition. The fabric is nearly perfect. The walnut stained, we believe ash, wood does show signs of age and use but nothing outstanding. There is wear to the stain on the arms where hands have rubbed. We call this patina. Please see photos, circa 1996. Here is a wonderful pair of little black chairs that can go everywhere. Just like that little black dress. This handsome set is made by Haworth Wood Seating of High Point, NC, circa 1996. Most likely they began life in an office setting, but this beautiful modern and sleek pair of chairs would enhance most any living space where you need a couple more places to sit. Or they would be fabulous host and hostess chairs at your dining table mixed with a myriad of other design options. Or place them at a small table for two...Category
