Veridian Grove is a wingback chair rooted in the long tradition of European high-back seating, a form developed to provide enclosure, warmth, and visual authority within domestic interiors. The wingback emerged in 18th-century Europe as an architectural response to interior heating, spatial hierarchy, and the regulation of domestic presence, defining a seated zone through height, planes, and containment. This example carries that lineage forward through a restrained silhouette that balances historic structure with contemporary proportion.
The chair presents a tall, gently arched back with extended wings that frame the sitter without rigidity. Its seat is deep and supportive, held by a compact, upright stance. Slender, tapered legs lift the form lightly from the floor, allowing the mass of the upper structure to read as composed rather than heavy. The profile is vertical and deliberate, with clear transitions between back, wings, seat, and base.
The frame was assessed and prepared for continued use. The chair was fully reupholstered and finished for structural integrity and long-term durability.
Veridian Grove is suited to spaces that value pause and orientation: a reading room, a library, a sitting area set slightly apart from circulation. Its height allows it to anchor a room without dominating it. The chair does not require explanation to function within an interior. It offers structure first, then accommodation, and remains open to the life that will pass through it.
Available through private acquisition.
