Petite Bentwood Settee in Holland & Sherry Wool & Linen Piping

About the Item

We’ve always been drawn to the elegant proportions of both Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern design. Though stylistically distinct, these movements share a sense of refinement that resonates beautifully in this Petite Settee. Designed in the early 1950s, it embodies a seamless blend of both influences—its graceful silhouette reminiscent of the work of Thonet and Alvar Aalto, with slender bentwood arms and just the right amount of upholstery to maintain its sophisticated presence. Our team undertook an extensive restoration, carefully bringing the piece down to its frame. The bentwood arms were meticulously refinished, revealing a warm, honeyed grain that enhances the wood’s natural character. We replaced all interior padding and support, sculpting each element to honor the original curves of the design. For the upholstery, we selected a luxurious Ivory Wool from the renowned Holland & Sherry, featuring a delicate herringbone weave that subtly enhances the settee’s contours. To define its form further, we finished the edges with a Sepia Linen piping trim, a refined contrast that complements the richness of the wood arms. Perfect for a nook, home office, or foyer, this Petite Settee offers both comfort and style—gracefully welcoming guests with open arms.

Eames Soft-Pad Executive Chairs in Charcoal Maharam Wool by Herman Miller

By Charles and Ray Eames, Herman Miller

Located in Stamford, CT

The great portfolio of Charles & Ray Eames is widely celebrated and serves as a model of inspiration for designers to this day. One of their most recognizable designs is the Aluminum Group line for Herman Miller from which these Soft Pad Executive Chairs were born. It is said that the Soft Pad variation was a design accident - cushions from the Eames Chaise found themselves draped over an Aluminum Group chair, and the rest is history. Whatever the story may be, the comfort of Charles & Ray’s Soft Pad seating perhaps rivals that of their famed Eames Lounge Chair. The Soft Pad collection consists of a Lounge Chair, a Low Back Management Chair, and this High Back Executive Chair. The design language is similar to the Eames Aluminum Group suite which sports a single “sling” of material which is tethered to two cast aluminum side rails and in this case, four plush cushions for optimal comfort. These chairs are equipped with a tilt mechanism with tension control as well as manual height adjustment. We have a large quantity of these Eames Soft Pad Executive Chairs...
