Oxford Armchair

Design

The Oxford armchair from Capital is about quiet balance. A clear, almost architectural structure holds a generous, cushioned volume that seems to float inside it. Lines stay clean, angles precise, yet the overall impression is soft and inviting. It looks composed from every side, which makes it suitable in the middle of a room as well as placed closer to a wall.

Materials & Build

Designed by Capital Creative Lab for the 2020 Armchairs collection, Oxford pairs metal details with rich upholstery. The firm outer frame defines the silhouette, while the inner seat and back can be finished in leather or fabric. The external backrest may be dressed in fabric or in quilted leather, giving the chair a more tailored, finished look when viewed from behind.

Comfort

Dimensions keep comfort at the center. Oxford measures about 33.9 inches in width and height, with a depth of roughly 29.5 inches, offering a generous seat without overwhelming the room. The seat height is around 18.1 inches, with arms at about 25.2 inches, so posture feels natural for reading, conversation, or a longer pause. The enveloping volume softens the structured outline, so the chair looks firm but feels welcoming.

Placement & Lifestyle

This armchair adapts easily to different settings. It has enough presence for a living room, lounge, or executive office, yet the footprint suits apartments and more compact spaces. Weighing about 64 pounds, it feels substantial, not fragile. Paired with the Oxford sofas, it can anchor a full seating group. On its own, a single chair or a pair can define a quiet nook, a hotel lobby corner, or a refined bedroom sitting area.

Longevity

Oxford is built around durable metals, with upholstery options chosen for both look and endurance. Quality fabrics and leathers are meant to age with use, not just wear down. With a volume of around 24.7 cubic feet, it arrives as a serious piece of furniture rather than a light accent. The clear geometry and considered proportions help it stay relevant as rooms evolve over time.
