Some chairs win you over with their curves before you even sit down, and Silk & Snow’s Aspen Swivel Chair is one of them. I tested it and loved it. After the Silk & Snow bed I’ve already covered, here’s a swivel accent chair from the Canadian brand, built around round, enveloping shapes that bring a sculptural presence to a living room, a bedroom or a reading nook. It comes in pistachio velvet, which shows up as a deep green in the brand’s photos.
A design that’s all curves
The chair stands out for its low, curved back, which creates an enveloping feel, and for its compact size: it makes an impact without taking over the room. The seat is generously deep, with plenty of space to settle in for a read or a good chat!
A smooth swivel
The metal swivel base turns a full 360 degrees, handy for following the conversation or changing your view without moving the chair. According to Silk & Snow, the motion is smooth and the base stays discreet, so the silhouette remains grounded.
Materials and comfort
Beneath its polyester velvet, the Aspen hides an engineered wood frame, zig-zag spring and webbing suspension, and a high-density polyurethane foam filling. It supports up to 245 lb. The brand says it ships quickly and requires little to no assembly – and it does!
My verdict
I tested it and loved it: a superb addition to any décor, with comfort to match and a very affordable price tag. Shipping is free, returns are easy, and the brand offers a 30-night risk-free trial and a 5-year warranty.
