Cub Mid-Century Modern Chair & Ottoman
A brilliant mix of wood and fabric. Sweeping lines of Mid-Century modernism with roots in clean comfortable Scandinavian design. Echoing a combination of soft and bold, the chair and ottoman is luxuriously upholstered in period-correct high-quality twill fabric while held in suspense by a solid tubular natural ash frame. The Cub Chair design ushers in a modernist aesthetic while delivering practical seating comfort.
MAKING THE ICON
The Cub Chair design is a Scandinavian mid-century modern lounging icon. The chair is pitched backward at an angle designed to ergonomically distribute the weight of the body on the back and the seat alike for a relaxing lounging experience. The arms do not simply follow the angle of the chair, they create it as the holistic approach to design incorporates the arm into the rear leg as one unit. An independently upholstered lumbar support and seat cushion platform create the lounging experience of the Cub Chair. A striking statement now as it was in the ’50s, the extending shape of the back is a modernist representation of the classic wing chair.
The Cub Chair was designed with the human body form in mind. As the ottoman perfectly completes the ergonomic angle of the chairs' overall seating experience it was decided that the chair would not be available without one. In nearly every case, a piece of furniture that rises to become a classic has both striking artistic form as well as practical comfortable everyday use.
About Vintage Tailored Twill
Twill is an interwoven knit fabric. The thread takes turns in an over and under weave forming a crooked yet overall lineal rectangle pattern that can be discerned at close range. The pattern exists but appears somewhat random when viewed from a normal distance. Vintage Tailored Twill features a finer, tightly tailored flat weave appearance.
Vintage Tailored Twill provides perhaps a more refined, tailored appearance than that of a typical coarse twill. It relies on the multi-tone nature of the fabric strands themselves to provide the appearance of depth of texture.
