Victorian Tête-à-Tête Chairs

This was an idea I had a while ago, and only just decided to try make it a reality!

Tête-à-tête means "Head to head" in English, and in this context means to talk one-on-one. Alternatively I've seen them called "conversation chairs".

The chairs became popular in the 19th century as a sort of novelty chair, which makes a gathering interesting.

I decided to try make two different versions of a tête-à-tête chair that I've seen extant examples of: a wingback chair, and a chair that I've called a "spindle" chair, because it has spindles (I've seen heaaaps of examples like this one).

What's difficult about this --as a Sims 4 piece of furniture-- is that there are no existing chairs which have two seating positions facing opposite directions. So I had to try quite a few different things in my knowledgebase (my head) to see what would work. Finally, using the "booth" tuning, I was able to move things into place as we see today!

These are, however, both Base Game Compatible.

The chairs I decided to convert were originally converted by josh031 from Hogwarts Legacy;
The Wingback chair has his original three swatches, as well as a number additional ones I've made, and put in different wood: 24 swatches in total:

The Spindle chair originally had 18 swatches in different woods, so I decided just to leave them as is:

I am just so happy with how these turned out, I hope you like them too!!!!!
