The Sherry Cobbler Occasional Chair is a study in contrast: a blackened solid wood frame with clean, angular mid-century lines wraps around a tufted grey bouclé backrest and a black faux leather seat cushion. The pairing of textures — soft, nubby wool-look bouclé against smooth, cool leather — keeps the chair from reading as either too rustic or too formal.
The frame is finished in a deep, matte black that shows the wood grain rather than hiding it, with gently tapered legs and rounded armrests that echo classic 1960s design references. Two tufted buttons on the backrest add just enough detail to keep the eye moving without tipping into ornamentation.
Because the palette is entirely neutral — black frame, charcoal-grey back, black seat — this chair works as a grounding piece in a room built around warmer woods and brighter accents, or as a moody anchor in an all-neutral space. It reads equally well solo in a corner reading nook or doubled up flanking a console or fireplace.
The Sherry Cobbler takes its name from the classic sherry-and-fruit cooler — a cocktail built on balance and restraint, much like this chair's pairing of hard and soft materials. Currently available to preorder; production begins once your order is placed.
