The story

A square, steady chair that turns toward whatever the evening brings.

Some evenings belong to the sofa and the people on it; others drift toward the window or the fire. The Marigny turns a full circle on its base, so it can face either, and its square, upright shape suits a long read as well as a long conversation.

Its outline is tailored: flat-topped track arms, a thick seat cushion and a firm back with softly rounded corners, all in a black-and-white weave flecked with soft white slub yarns. A low black metal base is set back underneath, so the chair seems to sit just above the floor.

The design

Three details that make the Marigny.

The Marigny is one textured weave and a few clean lines. These three details explain how it looks, how it sits and how it turns.

A Black-and-White Weave

A Black-and-White Weave

The Marigny is covered in a textured weave of polyester and acrylic: a black ground flecked with soft white and grey slub yarns in short vertical streaks. Up close it has a nubbly, tweed-like look; from across the room it reads as a deep salt-and-pepper.

Square Arms, Soft Corners

Square Arms, Soft Corners

Flat-topped track arms run straight from front to back and lean out slightly toward the top. Between them sit a thick seat cushion and a firm back whose top corners are gently rounded.

A Turn You Barely See

A Turn You Barely See

A round black metal base is set back beneath the chair, so it swivels a full 360 degrees while only a thin dark rim shows. At 31 inches square, it fits a corner or a pair across from a sofa.

Will it fit?

Width 31″ 79 cm
Depth 31″ 79 cm
Height 33″ 84 cm

Planning tip. The Marigny is 31" (79 cm) wide and 31" (79 cm) deep, so plan a square footprint of about 31" × 31" (79 × 79 cm), plus roughly 30" (75 cm) of clear floor in front. Because it swivels, keep it a few inches (about 8 cm) clear of walls and side tables so it can turn freely. Its arms are 25.1" (64 cm) high, so a side table about 22-26" (56-66 cm) high sits comfortably beside it.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

What is the fabric?

A textured woven fabric of 90% polyester and 10% acrylic: a black ground with soft white and grey slub yarns in short vertical streaks, for a tweed-like look.

Does it swivel?

Yes. It turns a full 360 degrees on a round black metal base recessed under the chair, so only a thin black rim shows at the floor.

How big is it?

It is 31" (79 cm) wide, 31" (79 cm) deep and 33" (84 cm) high, and weighs 76 lb (34.5 kg). The seat is 20" (51 cm) wide, 20" (51 cm) deep and 18.5" (47 cm) high, and the arms are 25.1" (64 cm) high.

Are the cushions removable?

No. The seat cushion and the back are not removable, and the covers do not come off. The frame is pine and hardwood with polyurethane foam in the seat and back; the chair holds up to 330 lb (150 kg), and no assembly is required.
