Modernary & Co. — Lounge Chair & Ottoman | Genuine Leather, Pickering

About this piece

There are plenty of cheap copies of this chair. This isn't one of them.

Every Modernary & Co. lounge chair is built the way the 1956 original was — three sculpted 9-ply plywood shells on a die-cast aluminium base, with cushions wrapped in genuine top-grain cowhide that softens and deepens with age rather than cracking like the PU and microfibre "leathers" you'll find on cheaper copies.

The result looks right from across the room and feels right the moment you sit down: a relaxed, fixed recline, a smooth 360° swivel, and a matching ottoman to put your feet up. Arrange pickup in Pickering, or ask us about delivery.

✓ Matching ottoman included with every chair
✓ Genuine top-grain cowhide — never PU or microfibre
✓ Assembly guide available online
