Altea Herringbone Armchair 72 cm – Light Upholstery & Ash Wood Frame

Altea Herringbone Armchair 72 cm – Light Upholstery & Ash Wood Frame

The Altea Herringbone Armchair combines softly rounded upholstery with an exposed ash wood frame, creating a balanced contrast between texture, form and natural material. Its compact proportions and curved wraparound back make it a refined choice for living rooms, bedrooms, reading corners and occasional seating areas.

Upholstered in a light herringbone fabric, the chair has a subtle woven pattern that adds depth without introducing a strong colour statement. The visible timber frame gives the design greater definition and allows the structure itself to become part of the overall silhouette.

Light Herringbone Upholstery

The chair is upholstered in 100% polyester fabric with a fine herringbone pattern. The light neutral tone creates a calm visual effect, while the subtle texture prevents the upholstery from appearing completely flat or uniform.

This makes the Altea particularly easy to pair with timber, stone, marble, black accents and softly textured furnishings within contemporary and modern classic interiors.

Ash Wood Frame

The exposed frame incorporates ash wood and plywood, introducing natural grain and warmth around the upholstered seat and back. The timber elements visually lighten the chair and create a more architectural profile than a fully upholstered design.

The warm brown wood tone also provides a subtle contrast against the pale fabric, helping the rounded form remain clearly defined.

Compact Armchair for Living Rooms and Bedrooms

With a width of 72 cm, the Altea armchair is compact enough to work as an occasional chair while still offering a generous upholstered seat. It can be positioned beside a sofa, next to a side table, within a bedroom seating area or as part of a quiet reading corner.

Its relatively low overall height gives the chair a relaxed and contemporary stance, while the open space between the seat and back prevents the design from feeling visually heavy.

How to Style the Altea Armchair

The Altea works particularly well in interiors built around natural materials and soft neutral tones. Pair it with a travertine or marble side table, a textured rug and a floor lamp to create a calm reading area, or use it as a lighter contrast beside darker timber or upholstered furniture.

The combination of pale fabric and warm wood also makes it suitable for interiors where texture and material contrast are more important than strong decorative colour.

Care

Regularly remove surface dust using a suitable upholstery attachment. For marks or deeper cleaning, follow the care guidance appropriate for polyester upholstery and avoid aggressive or abrasive products.

Wipe the wooden frame with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid prolonged exposure to excess moisture.
