The Brando is a metal frame armchair built for continuous dining service across restaurants, hotel dining rooms, private dining rooms, cafe lounge dining and club dining areas. The wraparound tub-style back, integrated low arms and upholstered front apron give operators a chair that reads as considered and composed in elevation while holding up under daily cover cycles. At 48 cm seat height and a compact 58 cm wide footprint, it fits standard dining layouts without sacrificing the arm clearance guests expect from a dining armchair.
Metal Frame Armchair for Restaurant Dining
The frame is solid American Ash finished in a clear 2K polyurethane coat. American Ash takes joinery well, holds fixings under repeated lateral load and resists the micro-movement that loosens joints in high-rotation seating over time. The 2K polyurethane coat is a two-component finish that cures harder than single-pack alternatives, protecting the timber surface from humidity, cleaning chemicals and the incidental knocks common in dining environments. Frame: solid American Ash with clear 2K polyurethane coat.
Upholstery is a leather-look PU over high-density PU foam across the seat, back and arms. PU leather-look performs where genuine leather would suffer from spill saturation and cleaning frequency. It wipes clean, holds its surface tension under repeated use and does not absorb moisture at the seam lines. High-density PU foam underneath maintains seat shape across multiple sittings per day without the progressive compression that mid-density foams show within the first year of commercial service. The tight upholstery pull and vertical back seam stitching are not decorative choices in isolation; they reduce stress concentration at the cover edges, which is where PU upholstery typically fails first.
The four tapered square-section legs sit near the four corners with a slight outward splay, distributing load away from the seat rail junction and widening the effective base. This geometry resists racking when guests use the arms to push back from the table, a load pattern that straight-set legs handle less efficiently. Detail Determines Performance.
The rounded back crest and soft radius corners are not styling decisions that add cost without return. They reduce the hard edges that cause upholstery to split at corners over time and they make the chair manageable for floor staff to handle and stack-clear at service end. Upholstered side caps conceal the seat rail without adding a separate trim component that can detach.
