Beseda Reading Chair & Ottoman

ELZORVAN Wood — furniture with grandchildren in mind
Every house needs one chair that belongs to somebody; the Beseda is usually claimed within a week — pitched for books rather than naps (though it forgives them), with an ottoman cut from the same hide.
Every piece is assembled once in the works, levelled, photographed and then prepared for the journey. Drawers run on waxed oak, doors close on brass, and the underside carries the maker's chalk and the house's plate — furniture built with grandchildren in mind, and stated so in the warranty.

Care
Keep solid wood a metre from radiators and out of noon sun; wood moves with the seasons and forgives households that remember it is alive. Breadboard ends may proud a millimetre in January — that is engineering, not error.
Hinges take a drop of oil yearly; drawers a candle-stub of wax on the runners. Everything else is decades.
Questions, Answered
Is the furniture solid wood?
Solid oak, walnut and ash throughout — tops, frames and drawers; veneer appears only where marquetry asks for it and is stated when it does. The chalk under every piece names the joiner.
Can I order a different finish?
Oil tones and wax colours are chosen at order from the house book; painted finishes are a commission with a stated lead time.
