High-Back Baroque Chair – Engineering Specification Overview
Engineering Logic
The engineering intent is to address Joint Fatigue within this High-Back Baroque Chair typology.
This is achieved through the integration of the OE-Lock™ Multi-Axis Joinery System, which operates by distributing the cantilevered stress of the elongated backrest into the cross-braced under-structure to significantly reduce the risk of leg splay.
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 Baroque Chair – Aesthetic Structure
Designed as a controlled study of proportion and material behaviour, the High-Back Baroque Accent Chair maintains architectural discipline.
The extreme verticality of the backrest acts as a visual anchor in cavernous spaces, requiring the X-stretcher base not only for structural triangulation but to visually weight the object against the floor, preventing a “top-heavy” appearance.

Project-Specific Interpretation
The engineering intent is to address Joint Fatigue specifically for the High-Back Baroque Accent Chair in a Hospitality / Hotel Lobby context.
This is achieved through the OE-Lock™ Multi-Axis Joinery System, which operates by buffering the internal matrix against stress vectors created by frequent use.
As a result, the risk of Joint Fatigue is mitigated under the influence of Cyclic Loading.
Construction & Material Behaviour
For this High-Back Baroque Accent Chair, the selected European Beech Frame is bonded to a core engineered specifically for commercial stability.
- Substrate Stack: Solid European Beech selected for its tight grain structure and high shear strength, essential for slender cabriole legs.
- Joinery: Double-doweled mortise and tenon joints reinforced by a functional X-stretcher to lock leg geometry.
- Finish System: Multi-stage white lacquer with hand-applied gilding, sealed with a high-hardness topcoat.
- Load Behaviour: The X-stretcher converts lateral seating forces into tension, protecting the upper leg joinery from leverage failure.

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 Lobby environments?
A: Yes. The system is specifically calibrated to counteract Joint Fatigue forces common in these settings.
Q: Is the velvet upholstery replaceable if damaged by guests?
A: Yes. The upholstery panels are engineered with a “drop-in” logic or accessible fastening points to facilitate re-upholstery without dismantling the structural frame.
Q: Can dimensions be modified?
A: Yes. All frames are built to order, allowing for millimetre-perfect calibration.
