Nova Accent Chair

The Nova brings the aesthetic of a coastal bungalow—paper cord woven over angled oak arms—to event lounges that call for something warmer than metal, less formal than velvet.

At Saddlerock Ranch, where cocktail hours unfold on the vineyard terrace under market lights, planners set the Nova alongside low-profile coffee tables and woven jute rugs to anchor a lounge vignette that feels lived-in rather than staged. The chair's natural finish and open weave read as organic, not rustic—a distinction that matters when the setting is garden-modern rather than barn-chic.

Design and Material

The frame is solid oak with a clear matte seal, built to withstand outdoor placement when sheltered from direct rain. Angled armrests are wrapped in paper-cord weaving—hand-applied in a honeycomb pattern that references mid-century Scandinavian originals without imitating them outright. The plush back cushion, upholstered in natural linen, is removable for transport and cleaning.

Dimensions: 33.1″ W × 26.4″ D × 35.4″ H. Seat height 18 inches. Weight capacity 300 lbs. Single-guest seating.

Styling Contexts

The Nova pairs naturally with the Laguna Round Coffee Table in lounge clusters of four to six chairs, arranged around a central anchor piece. For photoshoot styling or brand activations, the chair photographs well against white walls, greenery backdrops, or poolside at Montage Laguna Beach.

Planners at Hartley Botanica frequently request the Nova for garden ceremony seating—particularly when the aisle is grass rather than stone and the aesthetic leans toward understated European garden rather than formal estate. The chair's low profile and neutral palette allow florals and textiles to take visual priority.

Common pairings include our Handcrafted Farmhouse Jute Rug 6' x 9', honey-toned Yosemite Farm Table, and Olive Lounge Chair for mixed-seating lounge compositions.

Venues and Event Types

The Nova is requested for:

• Outdoor cocktail lounges at Calamigos Ranch, Saddlerock Ranch, and Malibu Rocky Oaks
• Poolside receptions at Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel and Peninsula Beverly Hills
• Brand activations requiring clean, editorial furniture without heavy visual branding
• Photo lounges and styled vignettes for fashion editorials and lifestyle campaigns
• Garden weddings where seating needs to complement rather than compete with landscape design

Indoor placement works equally well—particularly in venues with abundant natural light, neutral wall finishes, or exposed beam ceilings.
