Juliana High Back Linen Armchair – Skirted Lounge Chair

Classic High-Back Comfort with a Relaxed Tailored Finish

The Juliana High Back Linen Armchair is designed for interiors that call for a more traditional sense of comfort without heavy decorative detailing.

Its tall upholstered back creates a supportive, enclosed seating position, while the gently shaped arms soften the silhouette and provide a comfortable resting point. A broad loose seat cushion adds depth and relaxation, balanced by a tailored skirt that extends to the floor.

The result is an elegant upholstered armchair with a timeless character suited to both classic and contemporary interiors.

High Back Design

The Juliana’s defining feature is its generous high back, which gives the chair a stronger vertical presence than a conventional lounge chair.

The back rises cleanly above the arms before gently rolling over at the top, creating a softer finish when viewed from the side and rear. Subtle piping traces the outer profile and highlights the tailored construction.

Key design features include:

• Tall upholstered back
• Softly rolled top edge
• Rounded padded arms
• Generous single-seat proportions
• Loose upholstered seat cushion
• Tailored piping
• Full floor-length skirt
• Pleated skirt corners
• Clean transitional styling
• Soft freestanding silhouette

This combination allows the Juliana to offer traditional comfort while remaining understated enough for modern interiors.

Tailored Skirted Upholstery

A full-length upholstered skirt is one of the chair’s most recognizable details.

Rather than exposing the lower frame or legs, the fabric falls around the base to create a softer and more continuous silhouette. Neat pleats at the corners allow the skirt to follow the shape of the chair while retaining movement and a relaxed appearance.

The tailored skirt makes the Juliana particularly suited to interiors where softness, textile layering and understated craftsmanship are central to the design.

Upholstery & Craftsmanship

The photographed Juliana is finished in a pale blue woven upholstery that brings a light, calm character to its traditional proportions.

Upholstery is carefully fitted around the high back, arms and seat structure, with piping used to define the outer edges and cushion profile. The separate seat cushion provides a softer comfort layer, while the upholstered body maintains the chair’s structure and silhouette.

Alternative Linen World upholstery fabrics may be specified depending on the required texture, colour and project performance.

Exact internal frame, suspension and cushion specifications should follow the approved production details.

Comfort & Function

The Juliana is designed for a more supportive seating position than a low-profile lounge chair.

Its high back supports the upper body, while the padded arms and generous seat encourage relaxed sitting. The separate seat cushion introduces softness without compromising the chair’s more composed silhouette.

This makes the Juliana well suited to:

• Reading
• Conversation
• Bedroom relaxation
• Living room seating
• Hotel suite seating
• Quiet lounge areas

Its combination of back height and seat comfort makes it particularly appropriate for interiors where a supportive armchair is preferred over a deep, low lounge chair.
