Black Tela Chair by Wentz

About the Item

Black Tela Chair by Wentz Dimensions: D 54 x W 55 x H 80 cm Materials: Tauari Wood, Cotton, Weave, Plywood, Upholstery. Weight: 5,4kg / 11,9 lbs The Tela armchair is a meeting between contemporary design and traditional Brazilian materials. The weave of the backrest is inspired by the classic “straw” found in Modernist furniture. The weave design was recreated on a new scale and uses cotton as the raw material — instead of straw — for greater comfort and durability. The elongated silhouette of the back really emphasizes the fabric, while the wooden structure and upholstered seat have subtle inserts and curves. The armchair seeks maximum comfort with minimal structure, light aesthetics and a tropical memory.
