Dresden Lounge Chair

The Dresden Lounge Chair is a mid-century inspired lounge chair with a tall, gently shaped back and arms that flare outward in soft, rounded scrolls. The fully upholstered body sits on four slender, splayed metal legs, giving the chair a poised, slightly retro stance that looks great in bold patterns as well as solid leathers.

Beneath the upholstery is a solid wood frame, so the Dresden is sturdy and substantial despite its light-footed look. The high back and 20.75" square seat make it a comfortable reading or conversation chair, and its 28.5" width fits easily into lobby groupings and hotel rooms. It is part of our Alpine Lodge Collection, where it looks especially at home in a plaid or textured fabric, and it can also be upholstered in leather or faux leather.

Built for commercial use

The Dresden is built on a solid wood frame using mortise-and-tenon joinery with very few bolted connections, set on metal legs. 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 finish and upholstery warranty from shipment.
