Flo Occasional Chair - Brick - Natural Ash

The Flo Occasional Chair in Brick has a wraparound back on oversized solid ash pillar legs, upholstered in 100% polyester rated 94,000 on the Martindale scale. Cushions are foam wrapped in fibrefill. The legs ship knocked down.

Foam wrapped in fibrefill is a construction worth understanding. Bare foam holds a shape but feels firm and looks blocky at the edges; wrapping it softens the profile and gives the cushion a slight give at first contact without letting it collapse. It is the difference between a chair that looks upholstered and one that looks padded.

Brick is a decisive colour and this is a good shape to put it on. The wraparound back is a large continuous curve, so the tone graduates across it as light falls rather than sitting flat, which is what stops a strong colour reading as paint. Against natural ash legs the pairing is warm on warm. At 94,000 Martindale the fabric is specified well past domestic need.
