Herbert Chair

Selldorf’s father, Herbert, designed the armchair that bears his name. An expertly tailored silhouette devoted to comfort. The back is broad and the seat is deep, fitted with a loose cushion. Cut square to maintain a consistent edge, the cushion can be welted for emphasis. The arms trace lean, plumb lines which come to rest on tapered legs at the front. Sabered legs extend a countervailing arc at the rear. A tiny pleat at the armrests lends this design great distinction. Carefully proportioned, the Herbert Chair anchors a variety of spaces, completing arrangements. A studio favorite and key to the Cologne collection, it is locally made, by hand and to-order.
