Antique Small Occasional Chair | Cora
The Cora Antique Elm Occasional Chair is a beautifully characterful piece that brings warmth, history and understated charm to any room. Crafted from solid antique elm, every chair displays the rich patina, weathered grain and historic markings that only generations of use can create. Its honest simplicity and sculptural silhouette make it as much a decorative object as a practical piece of furniture.
Originally made using traditional woodworking techniques, the Cora celebrates the beauty of natural materials and handcrafted design. The gently worn timber, softened edges and authentic imperfections tell the story of its past life, ensuring every chair is entirely unique. These historic characteristics are not flaws but an integral part of its enduring appeal.
Whether placed beside a console table in an entrance hall, used as an occasional chair in a bedroom, or styled in a living room with a favourite throw draped over the back, the Cora introduces effortless character to both contemporary and traditional interiors. It also works beautifully as a decorative accent in a hallway, topped with a carefully chosen stack of books or a woven basket nearby to create a welcoming, lived-in feel.
A timeless piece with quiet presence, the Cora is equally at home in a relaxed country cottage, a converted barn or a thoughtfully curated modern interior where natural materials and craftsmanship take centre stage.

Crafted from Antique Elm
Elm has long been admired for its strength, durability and beautifully expressive grain. Over many decades, the timber develops a rich patina that cannot be recreated, giving antique elm furniture its unmistakable warmth and character.
Every Cora chair bears the natural signs of its history, from gentle surface wear and subtle colour variation to historic marks that celebrate its authenticity. These are the qualities that make antique furniture so desirable and ensure no two pieces are ever alike.
Perfect For
• Entrance halls
• Bedrooms
• Living rooms
• Reading corners
• Country cottages
• Contemporary country homes
• Decorative styling
Materials & Construction
The Cora is crafted from solid antique elm using traditional joinery techniques. Its sturdy construction and timeless design have allowed it to stand the test of time, while the naturally aged timber provides character that simply cannot be replicated in newly made furniture.
As an original antique piece, variations in colour, grain, historic repairs and signs of age should all be expected and appreciated as part of its unique story.

Courier Delivery
Delivery will take place via door-to-door courier because this item is too large and heavy, long or fragile to be delivered in a parcel by any of the UK parcel providers.
This service is undertaken by a one man delivery service.
Please therefore be prepared to help to move this heavy item from the van or lorry to just inside your door. When delivery takes place it will be to just inside the threshold of your home only.
The courier will not be able to carry the furniture up or down steps to access your property.
You will also need to supply a strong helper to assist on the day of delivery as removing this from the lorry is a job for two extremely strong people.
After the courier has left you will need to remove the item from its packaging when present and carry it from your doorway into your home or garden.
Delivery is added at the checkout - you will be able to view this charge before you pay.
Please note - our Marlow showroom does not contain our full inventory and therefore some items are not displayed in-store.
