The story

For the corner where you read until the light goes.

Some chairs are for sitting up straight. The Clarisse is for leaning back: a cup of coffee, a long chapter, a quiet half hour by the window or at the foot of the bed.

Its frame is simple and open. At each side, two solid rubberwood rails in a warm brown finish cross in an X, and five vertical slats fill the back. A thick seat cushion and a large back cushion in soft off-white chenille rest in the frame, and both have zippered covers that come off for cleaning.

The design

Three details that make the Clarisse.

The Clarisse is a few straight lines of wood and two soft cushions. These three details give it its character.

Soft Off-White Chenille

Soft Off-White Chenille

The seat and back cushions are covered in off-white chenille with a fine, soft texture. Both are reversible, and the zippered covers come off for cleaning.

An X at Each Side

An X at Each Side

Two solid rubberwood rails in a warm brown finish cross at each side of the chair, one running from the top of the back to the front floor, the other from the front of the seat to the floor behind. Five vertical slats fill the back.

Armless and Easy to Place

Armless and Easy to Place

At 25.5 inches wide with no arms, the Clarisse fits a reading corner, a bedroom or the space beside a sofa. Its seat is 24 inches wide and 18.5 inches high.

Planning tip. The Clarisse is only 25.5" (65 cm) wide, but its crossed legs reach 38.5" (98 cm) deep, so measure front to back before choosing a spot. With about 30" (75 cm) of clear floor in front, plan on roughly 70" (1.75 m) from the wall. It stands 36" (91 cm) high, with an 18.5" (47 cm) seat.
