A striking pair of mid-century dining chairs designed by Gordon Russell for Verco, showcasing a confident blend of craftsmanship and modernist materials. The sculpted rosewood backs and seats are beautifully contrasted by polished chrome sled bases, creating a design that feels both architectural and elegant.

The chairs retain their original deep blue upholstery, which complements the warmth of the rosewood and adds a bold, period-correct pop of colour. With their supportive proportions and distinctive vertical channel detailing, these chairs are as comfortable as they are visually impactful — ideal for a dining setting, desk seating, or statement occasional chairs.

A strong example of British mid-century design, combining quality materials with refined industrial lines.

These chairs work beautifully around a mid-century dining table, but are equally effective as statement desk chairs or accent seating. Pair with warm woods, chrome lighting, or graphic textiles to lean into their modernist character.
