Ronin Chair

The Ronin Chair is a sleek, armless pedestal chair with a channel-stitched upholstered shell. Wide horizontal channels run across the seat back, giving it a tailored, cushioned look, and the shell curves gently around the sitter for comfort through a long meal. It rises from a single column on a four-star base, with an optional swivel seat.

Shown in a soft taupe upholstery on a brushed brass base, the Ronin feels at home in modern restaurants, hotel dining rooms and lounges. The base comes in polished stainless steel, brushed brass, brushed copper or black powder coat, and the shell can be upholstered in leather, faux leather, fabric or your own material. The family also includes the Ronin Arm Chair, Ronin Stool and Ronin Wood Base Chair.

Built for commercial use

The Ronin Chair has a welded steel base rather than a bolted one, so it stays steady and solid in daily use. 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.
