Why this sidechair earns its place
The Brenda side chair belongs to the Bolero Bespoke range, and it carries the range's core idea through into a finished chair: a contract-grade product that looks tailored rather than off-the-shelf. Here that means a curved wooden back and blue faux leather seat over a walnut frame — a modern take on a classic silhouette rather than a plain commercial chair.
The frame is the part doing the heavy lifting. It's built from robust hardwood, selected for strength as well as looks, and structurally engineered to contract-use standard — meaning it's built to take the wear of frequent commercial seating rather than occasional home use. The curved back and solid joinery are what let it stand up to offices, restaurants and hotels day after day.
The seat pad is upholstered in a faux leather that replicates the look and feel of genuine leather while being easier to live with in a working venue — it's fully CRIB5 fire-retardant to contract grade, which matters for any high-traffic hospitality space that needs to meet contract fire-safety standards, and it's straightforward to keep clean between covers.
