Designed by Francesco Faccin for Miniforms the Pelleossa dining chair is now available with a seat covered in straw rushes derived from the canna indica plant.
Handmade in Italy by master craftsmen, the weaving process is particularly complex and demands a combination of strength and absolute precision. A checkered weave pattern is the strongest way to rush a seat because it distributes the weight evenly across the surface creating an extremely durable and hard-wearing seat.
Available with or without arms the Pelleossa dining chair has a slender frame with a gently curving backrest. Inspired by the Italian chairs of pre-industrial times, Pelleossa is built with traditional materials and a unique technology, the lathe. The name pelleossa (pelle - skin and ossa - bones) evokes simplicity and lightness.
The solid wood frame has a gently curving backrest and can be selected in flamed oak, black oak or oak stained walnut. There is also a leather version of the Pellossa chair, as well as a stool - see related products.
