Discover the Hand-Woven Cord That Forms the Seat
The seat is woven by hand from cord, strand over strand, which is why the pattern tightens slightly at the corners and never looks machine-flat. That weave does practical work: it flexes under weight instead of resisting it, and the gaps between strands let air pass, so the seat stays cool through a long lunch. The cord is UV ray resistant, a specification that matters the moment the chair sits near a window or on a terrace, because ordinary fibres fade unevenly where the light falls hardest. Brush loose grit out of the weave now and then to stop it abrading the strands.
Underneath, the frame is solid acacia wood in a walnut-effect finish, a warm mid-brown that reads close to walnut whilst keeping acacia's tighter, busier grain. Acacia is dense and naturally oily, which is part of why it copes with damp air better than many hardwoods. The chair is made using artisanal processes and natural materials, so colour and grain shift a little from one piece to the next: order four and you will see four related but distinct chairs rather than four copies.
