Description
Our Reader Black Oak Lounge Chair is built from solid oak, laminated veneer and polyester, with MDF and PUR completing the shell, pairing a natural wood frame with a substantial upholstered form. The oak is finished in Black Oak, giving the open legs and supports a deep, grounded tone, while the covering is Black across the tall curved shell. The seat wraps forward at the sides, so the back and armrests form one continuous piece that holds you as you settle in. It is a genuinely high-backed lounge chair rather than a low one, standing 105cm tall.
The shape is the point here. That tall shell curves up and around, cupping the shoulders and drawing in at the sides to make a quiet, enclosed spot for reading or resting. At 78cm wide and 91cm deep, it gives you room to sit properly without sprawling across the floor, and the whole chair weighs 21.5kg, so it stays put once you have found the right corner. We set the upholstered body on an open oak frame, which keeps the visual weight down and lets the wood read as part of the design rather than something hidden beneath.
We hold this lounge chair to recognised standards, so you can trust what you are buying. It meets EN 16139 (L1) for furniture, the Global Recycled Standard, ANSI/BIFMA X5.4 for public and lounge seating, and STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX. Assembly takes around 20 minutes and we provide a video to walk you through it. Place it beside a window, near a floor lamp, or in any spot where you want a comfortable place to pause.
