George Nakashima Settee with American Bison Hide Cushions
By George Nakashima Studio
Located in SAINT LOUIS, MO
Nakashima's settee is a design lover's dream. Simple wood craftmanship at its finest. The cushions are custom and crafted of thick and soft bison hide. Each is generously filled with feathers for a most comfortable seat. We love how the chocolate brown bison hide complements the American cherry wood. This two-seat settee is incredibly handsome and destined for an equally beautiful room.

George Nakashima Settee with Loro Piana Cashmere Cushions
By George Nakashima, George Nakashima Studio
Located in SAINT LOUIS, MO
Nakashima's settee is a design lover's dream. Simple wood craftmanship at its finest. For the cushions, we chose an ultra-luxurious Loro Piana cashmere in a super chic camel hue, a perfect complement to the black walnut. From Loro Piana, "One of the world’s finest raw materials, Loro Piana Cashmere is known for its superlative softness, lightness and warmth." The back cushions can easily be taken off to see the gorgeous slat back. This two-seat settee is incredibly handsome and destined for an equally beautiful room.
