Fauteuil Finley, Rayure Rouge Heritage

The hardwood frame feels rock solid under the armrests, and the rich red stripe fabric has that classic English library vibe I was hoping for. Unwrapped it this morning, sat down with a coffee, and it’s already the spot in the living room.

The red ticking stripe fabric is even richer in person, and the curved arms make it perfect for curling up with a book. I've been sitting in it every evening since it arrived and the hardwood frame feels like it’ll last for decades.

The frame feels rock-solid—you can tell the hardwood is doing real work here—and the chair’s curves hug you just right for a long afternoon with a book.
