Sturman chair

This partially upholstered walnut chair was made to replace an ugly alternative for someone who is still active but who has some mobility issues and who wanted something with a high straight back and a short seat she could rise easily from. While there is a whole industry connected with furniture designed around particular medical needs, very little of it is good-looking and even less of it gladdens the heart. I don’t see why age, injury or illness should mean forgetting style or delight.
