Melanie Side Chair

Elegant, comfortable dining chair with refined Mediterranean-inspired details — ideal for modern casual dining and hospitality settings. The Melanie Side Chair from Currey and Company pairs a light ash wood frame with textured performance upholstery to deliver a durable, stylish seat that complements both contemporary and transitional interiors.

Key Features & Design

• Artisan wood frame: Solid ash construction finished in a blonde ash tone that highlights natural grain and a light, warm look.
• Textured performance upholstery: Seat and the front and back of the seatback are covered in a high-performance woven fabric (Liller Tortoise / performance options available) that resists wear and cleans easily.
• Distinctive stepped detailing: Signature stepped trim where the upholstery meets the wood—an architectural touch that gives the chair personality and a subtly classical silhouette.
• Comfort-forward proportions: Generous padded seat and a supportive back framed by slanted rear legs for stable, ergonomic seating.
• No assembly required: Arrives ready to use—built for commercial-grade settings as well as home dining rooms.

Performance & Benefits

Durability for everyday use. The combination of ash wood and performance fabric makes the Melanie Side Chair easy to maintain—wipe-clean care and UV-stable upholstery options help it hold up in active homes and contract environments.

Comfort and style in one chair. With a 19" seat height and well-padded cushion, this chair supports long dinners and meetings without sacrificing posture or appearance. The light blonde finish and neutral textured fabric blend seamlessly with wood tables, marble tops, or mixed-material dining arrangements.
