A modern take on a more traditional style, Viola offers you a light-oak coloured weave to bring a fresh look into your home. The laminated rattan on the arms gives a smooth finish, while the closed weave on the base helps to make the Viola furniture sturdy. The armchair has an upright design with a slight angle, allowing for perfect relaxation. Meanwhile, the sides are fashioned with cane poles in a gorgeous design that is sure to make heads turn. Comfortable foam-filled seat cushions. Supportive fibre-filled back cushions. Dacron Wrap is used to help prevent loose, worn areas forming on cushions. Hand-crafted & hand-weaved cane frame through sustainable farming. 1 Year Manufacturer's Guarantee. Dimensions: 107cm (H) x 72cm (W) x 87cm (D)
Styling Notes
I’m a fan of the Viola chair for its clean lines and natural weave, which bring texture without overpowering a room. Its light oak finish and neutral cushions make it a versatile pick for Scandinavian-inspired living spaces, coastal retreats or even a relaxed home office corner. To style it, layer in a soft linen throw and a lumbar cushion in muted tones for extra comfort. Pair with a jute rug and a simple side table in pale wood, then add a few leafy houseplants to echo the chair’s organic feel.

About Downtown
Centuries of History and Growth
Downtown isn't just another store; they're a company with over two centuries of history! The journey began in the Lincolnshire town of Boston in 1804, when visionaries John Oldrid and Richard Hyde started their retail adventure by purchasing a modest retail unit.
The timeline of their growth is nothing short of impressive. From the launch of Downtown Boston in 1981, the grand opening of Downtown Grantham in 1989, to the launch of their transactional website in 2009, Downtown has evolved and adapted while preserving its essence.
Today, they proudly operate successful stores in Grantham and Boston, complemented by an expansive garden centre, continuing their tradition as a family-owned business that has thrived for over 200 years.
Unrivalled Selections and Expertise
When one thinks of Downtown, variety and quality come to mind. From exquisite furniture brands like Stressless, Parker Knoll, and Ercol to household names such as Smeg, KitchenAid, and Dyson, the store offers an expansive range catering to every need and desire.
Whether one is revamping their garden, refreshing their home interiors, or searching for the latest fashion brands like Barbour and Joules, Downtown is the ultimate destination.
Digital Presence and Personal Touch
Understanding the evolving needs of their customers, Downtown has established a strong online presence. Their website showcases over 20,000 products, offering the convenience of browsing from home and either opting for click-and-collect from their Grantham site or delivery across the UK.
The entire process, from warehousing to distribution, is managed from the Grantham site, ensuring seamless service. And it's not just about transactions; it's about building relationships.
With a team that takes pride in every order and goes the extra mile, the personal touch that Downtown offers is unparalleled. Their family ethos and dedication to customer satisfaction truly distinguish this independent business from the rest.
