YORU Armchair | Solid Wood Armchair Malaysia – NICCHRIS
Designed for Comfort. Made to Be Remembered.
Meet the YORU Armchair
The YORU Armchair is designed by NICCHRIS, bringing together the warmth of solid wood and the comfort of upholstered seating.
Inspired by Japanese furniture design, YORU has a relaxed, welcoming appearance with a few details that make it different from an ordinary wooden armchair.
Its gently curved armrests extend outward, offering a natural place to rest your arms. The upholstered backrest is surrounded by a beautifully shaped wooden frame, while the angled rear legs give the chair its distinctive profile.
The Details You'll Appreciate
One of YORU's most recognisable features is its armrests. Their broad, gently shaped ends provide a comfortable resting surface, while the wooden supports beneath them become part of the chair's design.
The padded seat and backrest introduce softness without hiding the natural beauty of the wooden frame.
From the side, you'll notice how the rear legs angle backwards and how the armrests connect with the rest of the structure. These details give YORU its own personality, whether viewed from the front or from behind.
A Chair That Works Beyond the Dining Table
YORU makes an inviting dining armchair, particularly for those who enjoy sitting comfortably through longer meals and conversations.
It also works beautifully as a standalone accent chair, offering an additional seat without the bulk of a conventional lounge chair.
Its combination of exposed timber and upholstered seating makes it easy to introduce alongside both contemporary and vintage-inspired furniture.
Make YORU Your Own
The YORU Solid Wood Armchair can be personalised with your preferred upholstery fabric and wood stain, allowing you to create a chair that suits your home.
Whether you're looking for a solid wood dining armchair in Malaysia or a distinctive wooden accent chair, YORU offers an original design with everyday practicality.
