Overview
The full design intent, materials, and how this system is built — in detail.
The DC-030 is a dining chair upholstered in performance leather over a slim metal frame. Performance leather here means an engineered upholstery surface, not animal hide — built to handle the spills, sliding-in and constant contact that a chair pulled up to the table absorbs every day. The frame underneath is a metal base that holds the seat profile through repeated use.
Engineered leathers like this earn their place at the dining table through wear behavior rather than patina. A genuine hide develops a patina as it ages — small surface scratches and color shifts that many owners prize — while a coated or microfiber-based performance surface is instead engineered for abrasion and scratch resistance, with a uniform finish that holds up to high-traffic seating. That is the relevant trade-off for a chair used at meals several times a day.
Care is deliberately low-effort, which is part of why a performance surface suits dining use: regular dusting plus spot or wipe cleaning is generally sufficient, with no conditioning schedule and good tolerance for humid rooms. That stands in contrast to uncoated genuine leathers, which absorb spills quickly and rely on periodic conditioning to stay supple. For everyday eating, the engineered surface is simply easier to keep clean.
Exact dimensions for the DC-030 — seat width, depth and overall height — are confirmed at consultation so the chair is matched to your table height and the surrounding pieces. To request full specifications and pricing, or to coordinate a set, book a consultation at /consultation.

FAQ
These questions help buyers compare options and reduce friction before inquiry.
No. Performance leather is an engineered upholstery surface (a coated or microfiber-based leather alternative), not animal hide, full-grain or top-grain leather. It is chosen for dining seating because it offers leather-like texture with stronger stain and abrasion resistance and simpler upkeep.
Engineered upholstery surfaces like this are low-maintenance: regular dusting plus spot or wipe cleaning is generally enough, and they tolerate humid environments well. There is no conditioning schedule to keep, unlike uncoated genuine leather, which absorbs spills quickly and needs periodic conditioning.
Seat width, depth and overall height are confirmed at consultation so the chair can be matched to your table height and the rest of your dining setup. Book a consultation at /consultation to receive the full specification sheet.
