Kennedy Tenner Occasional Chair - Beige Boucle

The Kennedy Tenner Occasional Chair in Beige Boucle is upholstered in 54% polyester and 46% acrylic, rated 50,000 on the Martindale scale. That is the most durable fabric this chair is offered in. The seat is 450mm high and 540mm deep, with arms at 620mm.

Fifty thousand Martindale on a boucle is the notable figure, because looped weaves are usually the fragile choice in a range rather than the tough one. It puts this colourway at more than twice the rating of the velvets on the same chair, which makes it the one to choose for a room that gets real use.

The acrylic content is what buys that. Nearly half the blend is acrylic, which gives the loop its resilience and its slight wool-like hand without the moth risk of actual wool. The caution with any boucle still applies: a looped yarn can be pulled by a ring or a claw, and a pulled loop does not go back. Beige is the safest tone in the range and the one most likely to disappear into a room.
