This midcentury quintet is something of a rarity from quality British furniture maker, Elliotts of Newbury. It’s a model hardly ever seen with a really unusual, spindled back design. Often forgotten with modern dining chair designs, it’s important how they look from the back because that is how they will be mostly viewed, set around the dining table. We love the blond wood and the chairs’ tidy dimensions which don’t compromise on seat width. They have been newly recovered in a Moon’s pure wool of warm brown-greys with a subtle herringbone motif running through it, bringing these 1950’s originals bang up to date. Neutral but not boring, the new fabric looks grand against the golden frames. A super set with a super pedigree.
