The story

A chair for a quiet hour with the lamp on.

Every home has an hour that belongs to no one else: the lamp on, a book open, the house finally still. The Gaspard is made for that hour, whether it sits as one of a pair in the living room, in a bedroom corner or in a study.

It is built from bold, simple shapes. One round bolster of dark brown velvet, 5.5 inches across, curves around the back and both arms above a padded seat. Below, a solid birch frame in a walnut finish stands on three legs, so the chair looks as composed from behind as from the front.

The design

Three details that make the Gaspard.

Round meets square in this chair. The three details below show how soft upholstery and a straight wooden frame work together.

The back and arms are a single 5.5-inch bolster in dark brown velvet. It curves around you and gives the chair its soft, rounded line.

A Three-Legged Birch Base

Sculptural from Every Side

Sculptural from Every Side

Round upholstery over a square wooden frame makes a chair that looks as good from behind as from the front, ideal where it is seen from the room.
