High-Back Silver Leaf Chair – Engineering Specification Overview
Engineering Logic
The engineering intent is to address Joint Fatigue within this High-Back Silver Leaf Chair typology.
This is achieved through the integration of the OE-Lock™ Multi-Axis Joinery System, which operates by triangulating the rear leg-to-rail connections to redistribute the leverage forces generated by the extended backrest.
Review our protocols for managing stress accumulation in high-back seating.
As a result, the risk of Joint Fatigue is mitigated under Cyclic Loading.
Crucially, this structural redundancy is engineered into the load-bearing joinery system to limit degradation without primary reliance on periodic refinishing.
High-Back Silver Leaf Chair – Aesthetic Structure
Designed as a controlled study of proportion and material behaviour, the High-Back Silver Leaf Chair maintains architectural discipline.
The verticality of the backrest serves as a visual partition in open dining halls, while the silver leaf finish acts as a light amplifier. This reflectivity requires an impeccable substrate surface, as any joint drift caused by fatigue would telegraph as a visible fracture in the metallic skin.

Project-Specific Interpretation
The engineering intent is to address Joint Fatigue specifically for the High-Back Silver Leaf Chair in a Hospitality / Hotel Dining context.
This is achieved through the OE-Lock™ Multi-Axis Joinery System, which operates by buffering the internal matrix against the drag-and-tilt forces typical of dining environments.
As a result, the risk of Joint Fatigue is mitigated under the influence of Cyclic Loading.
Construction & Material Behaviour
For this High-Back Silver Leaf Chair, the selected Solid Beech Matrix is bonded to a core engineered specifically for commercial stability.
- Substrate Stack: Kiln-dried European Beech, chosen for its high shear strength and shock resistance in slender leg profiles.
- Joinery: Double-doweled mortise and tenon joints, reinforced with screwed corner blocks to lock the geometry against racking.
- Finish System: Silver leaf applied over a grey bole substrate, sealed with a high-hardness acrylic topcoat to prevent tarnishing and abrasion.
- Upholstery Engineering: The patterned velvet is hand-aligned to ensure the motif centers perfectly on the backrest, with high-density foam specified to resist deformation.

Frequently Asked Questions
A: No. This documentation defines an engineering framework. Final form, detailing, and tolerances are confirmed during the bespoke specification phase.
Q: Is this suitable for Hospitality / Hotel Dining environments?
A: Yes. The system is specifically calibrated to counteract Joint Fatigue forces common in these settings.
Q: Will the silver leaf finish withstand chair stacking or frequent handling?
A: While this model is not designed for stacking, the silver leaf is protected by a contract-grade barrier coat. However, we recommend handling by the upholstered back or seat rail to preserve the finish longevity.
Q: Can dimensions be modified?
A: Yes. All frames are built to order, allowing for millimetre-perfect calibration.
