HERMIA Dining Chair
An architectural solid wood dining chair defined by a sculpted curved crest rail and a tapered timber leg framework.
The Hermia Dining Chair brings the comfort of upholstered seating into a clean, modern dining chair design. With its generously padded seat, tall upholstered backrest and solid wood legs, Hermia is designed for homeowners who want their dining area to feel as comfortable as it looks.
What sets Hermia apart is its softly rounded backrest. The gentle curve at the top gives the chair a welcoming appearance, while the slightly reclined profile creates a relaxed seating position. Its thick seat cushion adds comfort, making it an appealing choice for everyday dining, family gatherings and longer conversations around the table.
Unlike dining chairs with exposed wooden backrests, Hermia offers a fully upholstered seating experience. The wooden frame remains visible beneath the seat, providing a contrast between the soft upholstery and the structured legs. Its armless design also makes it easier to arrange multiple chairs around a dining table without making the space feel crowded.
Hermia is particularly suitable for those who prioritise comfort but prefer a dining chair with a simple, elegant appearance. The tall backrest gives it a more substantial presence than a typical low-back dining chair, making it an attractive option for larger dining tables.
For a modern contemporary dining room, Hermia pairs well with marble, stone or wooden dining tables. Its upholstered silhouette also suits modern minimalist and soft contemporary interiors, where comfortable seating and uncluttered furniture are equally important.
Whether furnishing a family dining area or creating a more refined setting for entertaining guests, Hermia offers the comfort of a padded dining chair with the versatility of a classic wooden frame.
The Hermia Dining Chair is made to order in Malaysia by NICCHRIS, with a selection of upholstery fabrics and wood stains available to complement your dining space.

Cohesive Interior Curation
Hermia is proportioned to accompany contemporary dining tables, executive conference rooms, and open dining halls. Consider pairing it with these complementary workshop pieces:
Zento Console
Serving as a dining room credenza or buffet sideboard, the clean horizontal geometry of the Zento Console anchors perimeter dining room walls. Its linear timber profile forms a crisp architectural backdrop that highlights the soft, curved crest rails of the Hermia Dining Chairs arranged at the table.
Mews Rack
The Mews Rack provides dedicated dining room display storage for fine dinnerware, glassware, and decanters. Its open vertical framework of solid wood, natural rattan, and glass tiers complements the warm timber construction and open silhouette of the Hermia chairs without cluttering dining room circulation.
