Booststory Ash and Cane Accent Chair — Lounge with Cushion

The Booststory Ash and Cane Accent Chair draws from the Scandinavian and Japanese design traditions that share an appreciation for natural materials, honest construction, and the specific beauty achieved when a chair’s structural components are also its decorative elements — nothing is hidden behind upholstery or cover panels in this design, because every part of the chair is worth looking at. The frame is constructed from solid European ash, chosen for its pale, consistent tone and its superior bending properties that allow the slightly curved backrest legs and armrests to be steam-bent to their final profile rather than cut, preserving the wood fibers across the full cross-section of each component and producing a frame of exceptional lightness-to-strength ratio. The seat and backrest infill is handwoven natural rattan cane applied by Booststory’s specialist cane weavers in a close hexagonal weave — the classic furniture caning pattern that has been used in chair production for centuries because it combines visual elegance with the structural properties needed to support body weight with minimal material. The cane weave is set into a routed groove around the perimeter of both the seat frame and backrest frame and secured with a pressed cane spline at the groove edge — the same secure installation method used in museum-quality antique restoration. The loose seat cushion provided with the chair is filled with a combination of high-resilience foam and natural kapok fiber, covered in a natural linen fabric with a zip closure for machine washing. The chair legs are fitted with brass floor glides and finished with a clear natural ash oil. Weight capacity: 120kg. Dimensions: 65cm W × 70cm D × 80cm H; seat height 42cm.
