Why We Selected It
Some chairs simply get the proportions right.
Inspired by an American wing chair dating to 1870, the Thorn Tail has a quiet elegance that's surprisingly difficult to find in newly made furniture. The gently sweeping wings, generous height and beautifully balanced silhouette give it the timeless presence of an antique without feeling overly formal or traditional.
It's the kind of chair that anchors a room—a piece you'll still love decades from now because it isn't trying to follow a trend.
While generously proportioned, the Thorn Tail remains inviting and comfortable, with a supportive wingback, deep seat and loose cushion that make it equally suited to reading, conversation or quiet evenings by the fire.
We especially love it upholstered in a simple natural linen, allowing its exceptional form to take centre stage.
Craftsmanship
Handcrafted in the USA by Cisco Home in collaboration with John Derian, the Thorn Tail is built on a solid alder hardwood frame with a tight upholstered seat, loose seat cushion and solid maple legs finished in warm fruitwood.
Available made to order in an extensive selection of fabrics, allowing each chair to be tailored to your home.
John Derian
John Derian's furniture reflects his lifelong appreciation for antiques, craftsmanship and enduring design. Rather than reproducing the past, his collection reinterprets historic forms with subtle refinements, creating pieces that feel both familiar and remarkably current. The Thorn Tail Wing Chair perfectly captures this philosophy.
