Brass-framed armchair with solid-wood seat, handcrafted in India
The lounge seat that earns its margin

A brass armchair anchors a room — and photographs like a hero.

An armchair carries a space the way no side chair can: it invites someone to stay, it fills a lobby corner, it finishes a reading nook. Brass gives that piece the one thing particleboard seating never will — real heft, a warm tone and a surface that can be mirror-bright or softly antique. It is what a designer reaches for to lift a hotel suite or a boutique floor, and what a retailer margins up because the metal reads as premium the moment the box is opened. We build it honestly: brass does the visible metalwork, a solid-wood frame carries the sitter's weight, and the seat is upholstered, leathered, caned or left in shaped wood. Choose a ready design from our catalogue or hand us your own.

How a brass armchair is built

Brass on the outside, solid wood doing the work.

Brass appears on an armchair in several ways — and each changes the price, the weight and the look. Because an armchair takes arm-loads and lean-back stress a stool never sees, we match the construction to how you sell and ship it, and to the wear your setting demands.

Cast & tubular brass frames

Sand-cast or spun tubular legs and arms carry the visible brass, with a sheesham or mango seat frame inside taking the load — the heaviest, most luxe build, ideal as a lobby or statement lounge chair.

Brass accents on a wood chair

Polished brass feet, sabots, arm caps and inlay lift a carved solid-wood armchair — lighter to ship, lower material cost, and an easy upsell across a seating range.

Sheet-clad & mixed metal

Brass sheet wrapped over a wood-cored structure, or brass paired with powder-coated wrought iron, for a contemporary look that can ship knock-down to raise container density.

Whatever the build, every armchair carries at least one solid-wood component, so it survives daily sitting and ocean freight alike. Read how the metal itself behaves — composition, finishes and care — on our brass material guide, or see the full seating range on the armchairs hub.

Finishes & pairings

One metal, many looks — matched to your sample before we cut a container.

Polished, brushed or antique

A mirror polish for a bright, luxe seat; a brushed satin that hides fingerprints on arms and legs; or a chemically aged antique tone for a consistent vintage look from day one.

Lacquered & plated

Clear lacquer seals the brass against tarnish, while nickel, chrome, black or gunmetal plating and powder-coat extend the palette for high-traffic contract floors.

Seat & wood pairings

Pair brass with full-grain or buffalo leather, your own upholstery fabric, hand-woven cane and rattan, or a shaped solid-wood seat in sheesham, mango or acacia.

Where it sells & how it lasts

Built for the floor, documented for the port.

Made for hospitality & retail

Brass is hard-wearing, corrosion-resistant and repairable, which makes a brass armchair well suited to hotel guest rooms and lobbies, restaurant lounges, cocktail bars and boutique retail. Because an armchair takes arm-loads and lean-back stress, we build to commercial-use expectations, QC each lot, and finish the metal for the wear your setting demands. See the full range we make for hotels, restaurants and bars.

Import-ready & easy to care for

Lacquered brass needs only a dry or barely-damp soft cloth — no abrasives or acidic cleaners that strip the seal; a living finish simply deepens, and can be polished bright and re-lacquered. On the paperwork side, the wood component and the container clear with FSC, Vriksh, EUDR-ready and CARB/TSCA documentation. See every certification we hold.

Questions buyers ask

Brass armchairs — wholesale & export FAQ

What is a brass armchair made of?

Our brass armchairs pair a brass metalwork element — cast or tubular legs and arms, a sheet-clad frame, or polished accents and sabots — with a solid-wood structure and an upholstered, leather, cane or wood seat. Every armchair carries at least one solid-wood component, usually a sheesham or mango seat frame and wood-cored arms, so it holds a sitter's weight and lasts through commercial use; we do not supply plywood-only or panel seating. The brass is worked in the Moradabad metal cluster and assembled with our Jodhpur solid-wood lines.

Does the brass on an armchair tarnish?

Bare brass develops a warm patina as copper in the alloy reacts with air, and many buyers choose that living finish on purpose. Where a bright, stable look is required we apply a clear lacquer that seals the surface so it will not tarnish in normal indoor use, while antique and brushed finishes are aged deliberately so they read consistent from day one. For high-traffic hotel and restaurant floors we also plate or powder-coat the metal.

What is the minimum order for wholesale brass armchairs?

A trial or sample order can ship LCL (part-container) so you can approve the metal tone, finish, wood and comfort before committing. For best wholesale pricing thereafter, one 20ft full container load (FCL) is our standard minimum, and we consolidate brass armchairs with other seating, furniture, décor and metalware into a single mixed container.

Can you make brass armchairs to our own design or private label?

Yes. We work as both ODM (our catalogue designs) and OEM — manufacturing to your drawings, dimensions, metal finish and upholstery, with custom CNC carving, your branding and retail-ready, Amazon-FBA-ready or gift packaging. Send a reference image or a spec and we prototype to it before any production run.

Are your brass armchairs compliant for US and EU import?

Yes. Brass itself is a metal, but the solid-wood component and the wider consolidated container still have to clear — so we document FSC chain-of-custody, Vriksh timber-legality and CITES-compliant sheesham handling, with ISO, SGS and SEDEX/SMETA audits, EN 10204 MTC-style material traceability, EUDR-ready due diligence, US Lacey Act support, UK Timber Regulation, CARB/TSCA finishes and ISPM-15 export packing.

What is the lead time for a brass armchair order?

Typical production is 30–45 days after sample approval, depending on quantity, metal finish and upholstery. Urgent orders can be accommodated at a premium. We ship FOB or CIF from Mundra or Nhava Sheva.
