About the Item

Originally designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa for Molteni&C in 1973, the Monk chair is now featured as an exclusive re-edition in the Heritage Collection of Molteni&C. Crafted in Italy from American walnut, the chair's slender, solid-wood frame supports a smooth leather seat and backrest wrapped around steel tubes, offering a comfortable and supportive sit. Eight steel rivets hold the frame and seat together in a subtle decorative finish on this design that evokes a sleek and simple, almost monastic, style. Monk is a natural addition to every space. Frame: American walnut solid wood Seat and backrest: Black hide leather Dimensions: W 20 1/4" x D 17 1/8" x H 29 7/8" Made n Italy
