Motomi Kawakami 'Seoto KD201' Bench in Walnut for Hida

About the Item

Motomi Kawakami 'Seoto KD281' bench in walnut for Hida. For centuries, famed Hida artisans in Gifu prefecture have played a role in Japan's woodworking culture, crafting iconic bentwood furniture from sustainable local forests. Established in 1920, Hida Sangyo builds upon the Japanese heritage of craftsmanship and sustainability from their headquarters in Gifu, which remains one of Japan's leading furniture production areas. In addition to offering iconic designs from midcentury masters like Sori Yanagi and Enzo Mari, Hida produces contemporary creations from international designers such as Atsuhiko Misawa and atelier oï. First introduced in 2011 by designer Motomi Kawakami, the Seoto series soon began collecting international design awards and recognition. Featuring a wide curved backrest, the bench's back remains supportive from a variety of seating angles. Coupled with the carved seat, the Seoto collection is pleasantly comfortable while remaining equally stylish. Please note that the wood's grain, color and features vary from item to item due to the organic nature of the material. Price per item. Available to order in unlimited quantities with or without upholstery. Also available in oak and beach - please inquire for upholstery and wood options. Available as a chair, please see our separate listing for the Seoto model 'KD201.' This listing is for the Seoto model 'KD281' non-upholstered bench in solid walnut.
