One Frame, Three Ways: The Everly Chair

This month, we're spotlighting the Everly Chair by CR Laine — a beloved favorite among both our staff and customers. With its striking silhouette and endless customization options, it's the perfect piece to showcase just how creative you can get with upholstery. We asked three of our talented Design Consultants how they would customize the Everly Chair. Here's how they each brought their vision to life.

Meet Everly

With its sculptural curves, refined silhouette, and exceptional comfort, the Everly Chair by CR Laine is a standout piece in any room. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Everly features saddle-stitched seams and recessed ball casters, adding both functionality and a subtle, tailored finish. Its compact dimensions—25 inches wide, 25 inches deep, and 31 inches high—make it an ideal choice for a variety of settings, whether tucked under a desk, placed at a dining or dressing table, or used as extra seating in a smaller space. With hundreds of fabrics, leathers, and trims to choose from, the Everly Chair can be tailored in countless ways to suit your personal style.

Maryjane’s Cozy Conversation Nook

Body Fabric: Sarah Silversage by CR Laine
Welt Cord: Banks Mineral by CR Laine

"I love this fabric because it feels so natural and earthy — the perfect contrast to the funky, unique shape of the Everly Chair. The light, sweet tone of Sarah Silversage could fade into the background on its own, but the dark sagey green welt makes the whole piece pop. It adds just the right amount of definition and drama."

Styled Setting:
“I picture these chairs placed in front of a big, cozy fireplace — a space meant for great conversation and warmth. Add a small coffee or drink table between them, and you’ve got the perfect setup for sharing a cocktail or playing cards on a chilly evening.”

Julie’s Botanical Sunroom

Body Fabric: Fairfax in Ivy (1232) by CR Laine
Welt Cord: Glynn in Pesto (1920) by CR Laine

"The crisp green-and-white botanical print brings the outdoors in — no watering required! The bold leafy pattern is playful yet polished, and the contrasting welt in Glynn Pesto gives the silhouette a fresh, tailored finish."

Styled Setting:
“I’d place these in a sunroom where the light pours in and the chair’s vibrant pattern can really shine. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the feeling of nature without ever stepping outside.”

Heather’s Sophisticated Bar Room

Body Fabric: Delbeke Noir by CR Laine

"Delbeke Noir is bold, dramatic, and elegant — perfect for creating a moodier vibe. I love the idea of using this chair in a bar room or lounge area. It’s a statement-maker that invites you to sit down, relax, and sip something strong."

Styled Setting:
“A bar room is where this look belongs — think dim lighting, vintage barware, and a timeless color palette with a hint of drama.”
