The Darafeev 960 is an upholstered dining chair with a generously padded seat and back, a solid maple frame, and a clean armless profile.
It works beautifully around a dining table, game table, or poker table, especially when you want seating that’s softer and more substantial than a traditional wood dining chair.
The upholstered back features subtle button tufting that gives the chair a little more depth and personality without making it feel overly formal.
It works especially well with solid fabrics and leathers, where the tufting can stand out more clearly and add a more tailored, finished look.
For shoppers drawn to tufted dining chairs or leather tufted dining chairs, this detail helps the 960 feel more distinctive than a standard upholstered side chair.
Both the seat and back are padded, giving the 960 more of a comfortable, sit-and-stay feel than a basic dining side chair.
That makes it a particularly good choice for long dinners, card games, or game nights when people may be sitting at the table for several hours.
If you’re searching for an upholstered dining chair with a wood frame, the 960 gives you plenty of cushioning without covering up all of the maple.
Without arms taking up extra room, the 960 can be positioned closer to neighboring chairs and pulled neatly underneath many dining and game tables.
That makes this armless upholstered dining chair a practical option when you’re seating several people around one table.
It also keeps the silhouette lighter than a larger dining armchair.
The 960 isn’t limited to the dining room.
Its padded seat and supportive back also make it an excellent game table chair or poker chair, especially if you prefer stationary seating rather than swivel chairs or chairs with casters.
For a dedicated game room, you can customize several chairs in the same upholstery and wood finish for a coordinated table setup.
The chair is built with a maple frame, which has a finer and more subtle grain pattern than oak.
That gives this maple dining chair a clean, even appearance and allows the upholstery to take more of the attention.
Choose from a range of wood finishes to coordinate the chair with your dining table, poker table, cabinetry, or other furniture.
The upholstery can completely change the character of the 960.
A neutral performance fabric works well for everyday dining, while leather can give it a more traditional game-room or poker-table look. You can also choose a pattern if you want the chairs to bring more personality to the room.
The 960 has a straightforward shape, but the upholstery and maple finish give you a lot of freedom in how it looks.
Keep it light and simple for a breakfast or dining area, choose darker finishes for a formal room, or use leather for a dedicated card or game table.
The term suspension seat comes from the liner suspended between the wood frame. As the occupant moves up and down, the liner gives, preventing the body from constantly hitting against a hard surface such as those found in stock seats.
