Health conscious buyers beware! Ordered 8 of these chairs in the dark blue velvet color after much correspondence with a Joss & Main customer service representative regarding if these chairs were or were not treated with flame retardants. Got an email from someone at Joss & Main saying they contacted the manufacturer and they stated that the chairs were NOT treated with flame retardants so I went ahead with my purchase. Just got the chairs today and what do ya know! The label on the underside of the chair clearly says that they are! As a nurse and new mother I am trying to look out for the health and well-being of my family by not exposing them to harmful chemicals, so if you're like me and trying to do what is best for your family steer clear of these chairs!
