Ted Boerner’s Arctic Chair

June 4th, 2009

A reinterpretation of a chair discovered in a Parisian antiques shop, Ted Boerner’s Arctic Chair is named for the newly-renovated Seattle, Washington hotel for which it was commissioned.

The chair features subtle traits that evoke the Arts & Crafts and Mission periods, essential design elements that have been retained while refinements have been made to its back and molding details that enhance the overall aesthetics. Elongating the seat while maintaining the comfortable pitch and shape of the chair’s back, Boerner has created a piece that is more in tune with today’s consumers yet has not lost its roots. The sloping angle of the arms, and their tastefully exaggerated proportions, give the Arctic Chair a sense of quiet motion and a striking, distinctive silhouette.

With two standard finishes and two standard leather options, the Arctic Chair is available now from Ted Boerner.
