O.F.S. Folding Field Chair
The Folding Field Chair is where it started. We designed it in 2015 as part of the Officer's Field Set — the leather-clad trunk and field suite we built with Ghurka to mark their fortieth year, which debuted at Fortnum & Mason that autumn. The brief called for two folding chairs and a table compact enough to ride in the boot of a grand tourer. The chairs would come out for a meal on the lawn, a drink at the edge of a field, a long view considered from a comfortable seat, and disappear again before the light went.
The chair has gone on to a longer life than the brief anticipated. A client asked us to draw it for the dining table, which became the O.F.S. Dining Chair. Another wanted arms at the head of the table, which became the O.F.S. Arm Chair. A third wanted to recline, and the O.F.S. Lounge followed. The original — this one — remains the lightest, the lowest in profile, and the one most easily packed away. White oak with a canvas sling, bridle straps, brass hardware. Sized for a picnic, finished for a drawing room.
