Leather Khartoum Armchair

The color of strong coffee, with considerably more staying power.

This Khartoum armchair is contemporary, from the Primitive Collection, in dark brown leather. Leather has long been the material of choice for the serious armchair, since hide wears slowly and suits a piece meant to be sat in for decades. Thick rounded arms flank a low square back. The seat cushion is plump and flat-fronted, with a single line of stitching around its edge, and the whole body sits close to the floor. Light slides across the smooth surface. Thirty-seven inches long and thirty-three high.

Leather keeps its own record. Give it time.
