The Camden Chair is a fully upholstered side chair with a distinctive curved back that wraps around the sitter like a soft band. The back floats above the cushioned seat on the slim steel frame, leaving an open gap between them, and four thin, straight steel legs keep the overall look light and architectural.
The effect is modern and tailored, with a nod to mid-century dining chairs. The wraparound back gives good support for long meals, and the 20" width and 17.75" x 17" seat make it comfortable without taking over the table. Specify the frame in any of our powder coat, metal or premium finishes, or a custom color, and pair it with faux leather, leather, velvet or performance fabric. A matching Camden bar and counter stool is available.
The Camden's steel frame is welded, not bolted, for long-term rigidity. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and its foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. It ships fully assembled from the factory and carries a 3-year frame structural warranty and a 1-year warranty on finish and upholstery from shipment.
Plan about 24" per seat at the table. Our restaurant seating layout guide has more on spacing.
