There are chairs that furnish a dining room and chairs that define it. The Via is the second kind. The walnut frame is the detail — tapered legs that taper and cross in a way that reads almost sculptural, with a natural wire-brushed finish that lets the grain do the talking. The oval back cushion and rounded seat are upholstered in an ivory textured weave that has just enough warmth to feel considered without feeling precious. It works around a dark table as much as a pale stone one. FSC-certified walnut, foam and polyfiber cushioning, foot glides on the base. The kind of chair that makes you glad you didn’t settle for something easier. $579.
