This piece won the prestigious Spanish National Handicraft Award in 1986. Its design masterfully combines tradition and modernity through an ergonomic, continuous weave of natural chestnut fibers, entirely handmade, supported by a black tubular metal structure and solid hardwood legs. This artisanal technique, preserved for generations, provides the piece not only exceptional comfort but also historical authenticity. It represents a rare example of the fusion of traditional Spanish craftsmanship and modern design, standing out at a time when the concept of design was still emerging in Spain. This piece of furniture reflects the resilience of local craftsmanship in the face of global industrialization while maintaining the authenticity of its origins. Ideal for international collectors and lovers of exclusive design, with both functional and historical value. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
