FAQs

Originating in British India during the nineteenth century, the planters chair was designed for rest on tropical plantations. Its distinctive flat armrests extended forward to allow users to elevate their legs, promoting circulation and cooling in warm climates.

These chairs were predominantly crafted from climate-resistant dense hardwoods, particularly teak or rosewood. Seating surfaces often featured woven cane for ventilation, though padded leather or heavy canvas were also utilized, secured with metal studs.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces display hand-carved joinery, swivelling leg-rest arm extensions held by iron or brass pins, turned front legs, and a rich natural patination on the tropical timber.

A planters chair functions as an architectural accent piece in a study, library, or living space. Positioning it alongside contemporary neutral textiles or minimalist shelving allows its distinct silhouette and rich timber tone to stand out.

Keep the chair away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage and leather desiccation. Nourish the hardwood using a natural beeswax polish and apply a dedicated leather conditioner to maintain the upholsterys flexibility.
