Kennedy 35" Leather Chair, Black Aniline

Kennedy Mid Century Modern Club Chair

Heavy, down feather stuffed cushions you can sink into. Cushions that are upholstered on both sides so you can flip them over for increased longevity. Kennedy is built by hand using a kiln dried solid hardwood frame. Practical comfort and solid craftsmanship meet original mid-century modern aesthetics. With Kennedy, comfortable modernism is so easy to love. One of the differences you will find in the design of the Kennedy Chair from that of a typical mid-century cube shape is the arms are dropped lower than the height of the back. This lower arm concept is one of the elements responsible for the improved seating comfort.

Inspired by Comfortable Modernism

From a visual perspective, the stationary fixed back of Kennedy features a well placed single row of button tufting while still spanning the width of the chair body. The arms do not integrate into back space rather they end where the back begins. This allows for a cleaner, more lineal design visual while accommodating for the practical comforts of everyday use. The single midcentury modern seat cushion design features a multi-density foam core but you may notice it is plump and amply overstuffed with down.

A richly comfortable seating experience results from a streamlined mid century modern seat cushion design. A substantial and intriguing 90 degree angle modern craftsman wooden block leg frame system holds the design to its iconic mid century modern architectural roots. From the wood frame, to the down feather stuffed cushions to the stitching quality and upgraded premium aniline leather upholstery, Kennedy is crafted entirely by hand.

Genuine Top Grain Aniline Leather

A small percent of the world’s leather supply is of high enough quality for 100% Top Grain Aniline upholstered furniture. Aniline Dyeing is the process of soaking the hides in transparent aniline dyes which allows color to absorb into the natural hide. Top Grain Aniline leather is then topical stain protected to minimize liquid absorption during every day use but does not require imitation grain stamping methods which imprint a Faux grain over the majority of the leather surface. Without all the synthetic topical coatings, it breathes naturally making it comfortable for seating. It is soft, supple, durable and pliable, maintaining the characteristics of pure leather.

100% Genuine Top Grain Premium Aniline Leather

Making up only 5% of the worlds leather supply Top Grain Aniline is the best quality, softest leather we offer. This premium leather is Aniline vat dyed with the color penetrating through to the back of the hide. Top Grain refers to the actual surface of the hide presents a natural leather appearance and touch you would expect.

This series is upholstered in premium Top Grain Aniline European leather. This is a significant upgrade in leather options. Top Grain is the actual surface of the cowhide. While no one knows the actual number, a small percentage of furniture sold today is upholstered in Premium Top Grain Aniline leather. Some claim as low as 5%. Aniline dying describes one of the two processes in which color is applied to the leather with the dye penetrating the leather and extending beyond the surface, into the leather itself. For modern furniture requiring a clean aesthetic, Top Grain Aniline Leather is both “liquid vat” (deep penetrating) and surface dyed to achieve the main color selection and to conceal uneven tones and blemishes in the hide. Top grain aniline is the softest leather and naturally breaths well. Because Top Grain refers to the actual surface of the animal hide it presents a natural leather appearance you would expect. While it is true that raw Top Grain Aniline absorbs spills easier, furniture grade Top Grain leather features a stain resistant treatment making it exceptional for everyday lower maintenance use. Although rare, nothing wears, looks or feels better than premium Aniline Top Grain leather. Over time it patinas and becomes more comfortable versus wearing out.

“Split Grain” is the most common leather used on furniture. This reproduction has been upgraded to Top Aniline leather and does not use Split Grain leather. Nonetheless, this paragraph will help explain the difference in quality and price between the leather types. Split Grain is the underside of the hide that has been separated from the surface or “top” of the hide. While defined as actual leather, Split Grain leather does not have the natural surface grain of the top of the cowhide. A topical layer of insoluble pigment is applied to the surface of split grain leather, which is then stamped or “grain embossed” to imitate the surface appearance of actual leather. This topical layer contains the color that the leather will be.
