Devany Dining Chair - Brown Velvet with Black Metal Legs

The Devany is a dining chair built on a four-leg matt black metal frame, with a plywood seat and backrest upholstered in brown velvet polyester. The seat and back are padded with foam and divided into vertical panels that create a quilted surface and provide support where the back and thighs make contact. The brown velvet is a mid-tone taupe-brown with a soft nap that diffuses light and hides minor wear better than smooth fabrics.

Designed for residential dining tables and hospitality settings where durability matters as much as appearance, the Devany sits at a standard 46cm seat height and weighs 8kg per chair. The matt black legs are welded steel with a powder-coated finish that resists scratching and chips less than gloss paint. The chair arrives flat-packed with assembly required — the seat attaches to the frame with four bolts, typically taking 10-15 minutes per chair with a Phillips screwdriver or Allen key depending on the batch.

The 57cm width and depth make the Devany compact enough for tables where six chairs need to fit comfortably around a 1.5m-1.8m diameter or rectangular table. The vertical paneling on the backrest references mid-century shell chairs without replicating them exactly, giving a contemporary take on that era's organic curves and structured comfort. The brown velvet pairs with walnut, oak and darker wood tables, as well as glass or stone tops where warm upholstery softens the hard surface.

Product Specification Sheet

Assembly Instruction

Does the chair require assembly?

Yes. The Devany arrives flat-packed with the seat separate from the frame. Assembly involves attaching the seat to the legs using four bolts, which takes approximately 10-15 minutes per chair. Tools are typically included but a Phillips screwdriver or Allen key may be needed depending on the batch.

What is the seat height?

The seat height is approximately 46cm from floor to the top of the seat cushion, which is standard for dining chairs and pairs with tables between 74-76cm high.

How is the velvet upholstery cleaned?

Velvet polyester can be vacuumed with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and crumbs. For spills, blot immediately with a clean dry cloth — do not rub, as this can push liquid into the foam. For deeper cleaning, a damp cloth with mild detergent is acceptable, but test on an inconspicuous area first and avoid soaking the fabric.

How many chairs fit around a standard dining table?

The 57cm width allows six Devany chairs to fit comfortably around a 1.5m-1.8m diameter round table or a 1.6m-1.8m rectangular table. For narrower tables or tighter spacing, measure your table perimeter and allow 60cm of space per chair including clearance for pulling out.
