Origin Made Meia Lua Armchair in Walnut

About the Item

Meia Lua means "Half Moon" in Portuguese. Gabriel Tan wanted to create an armchair that is both functional and collectible - one that can hold its own if displayed singularly in the middle of a space, while also suitable around a dining table for everyday use. Inspired by crescent shaped three-legged chairs of the late 50s, this chair bears new and unusual details such as its paper cord braided armrests, giving a wonderful sense of tactility against one’s skin. The chair combines the skills of woodworker Carlos Barbosa and weaver Maria Adelina Ferreira, made in the north of Portugal.
