Constructive Color

A graphic armchair built from an exposed steel frame, upholstered panels, and wood armrests, with contrasting materials that make its construction part of the composition.

• Slender steel frame with structural rear supports
• Padded seat and backrest with smooth upholstery
• Solid wood armrest caps add warmth and tactility
• Eight configurations shift color and silhouette
• Graphic profile inspired by early modern utility design

Materials

Painted Steel Tubular Frame
A slender steel frame forms the primary structure, with tubular front legs and arms contrasted by broader rear supports. A painted finish gives the metalwork its saturated color and clean, industrial character.

Padded Vinyl Upholstery
The seat and backrest appear to use smooth, leather-like vinyl upholstery over cushioning. The material gives the chair a crisp, slightly lustrous surface suited to its graphic geometry and color-blocked construction.

Solid Wood Armrest Caps
Wood caps sit directly over the steel arms, introducing a warmer natural material at the chair's primary touchpoints.

Foam Seat & Back Cushioning
Padded seat and back panels soften the otherwise architectural construction, providing everyday comfort without obscuring the chair's lean proportions.

Design

Rooted in the functional modernism of the 1930s and ’40s, the design treats structure as something to show rather than conceal. Tubular steel, broad rear supports, compact upholstered planes, and applied wood details recall an era when furniture increasingly borrowed its logic from architecture and industrial fabrication.

• Exposed construction defines the silhouette
• Reinforced rear legs create visual counterweight
• Color blocking separates structure from upholstery
• Compact cushions preserve the architectural profile
• Eight styles offer armchair and side-chair variations

Structure on Display

The steel framework remains deliberately visible, making joints, supports, and transitions part of the design.

Architectural Rear Supports

Broad, angled back legs contrast with the finer tubular frame, giving the chair its distinctive stance.

Graphic Color Blocking

Contrasting planes turn the seat, back, frame, and supports into a bold geometric composition.

Modernist Utility

Straightforward materials and an economical structure reference the machine-age furniture of early European modernism.

We don't hide it and wear it as a badge of honor for the places our products have been and the people who made them.

Questions About The Gusset Armchair

How long until I receive my order?

The Gusset Armchair arrives approximately 5-7 weeks from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Gusset Armchair can be returned after receiving the order only if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

The Gusset Armchair ships within 1-2 weeks of order placement.

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking details, allowing you to monitor its progress. Simply use the provided tracking information on our delivery partner’s website to stay updated on your shipment.
