Stamped "Made in Italy," these chairs reflect the simple elegance of mid-century rural craftsmanship—a perfect marriage of form and function.

With their gently curved backrests and warm honey-toned wood, these chairs offer both comfort and understated beauty. The woven rush seats are a nod to traditional Tuscan furniture-making, where artisans have long employed straw and seagrass to create lightweight yet durable seating for farmhouses, kitchens, and country villas.

Unpretentious yet refined, this set captures the spirit of post-war Italian design that prioritized natural materials and honest construction. Their minimalist profile also echoes the ethos of designers like Charlotte Perriand and Gio Ponti, who found beauty in utility.
