Dakar, 0842

This chrome- and vacuum-tanned, full-grain aniline leather has a waxed surface for an exceptionally soft touch and a glossy finish that highlights its natural texture. Becoming more comfortable over time, it provides a supportive and cosy seating experience and develops a distinctive patina that adds character and uniqueness to each piece of furniture.

Solid Oak, Black Stained, Lacquer

Please note: as each sample is crafted from natural wood, variations in colour and grain are to be expected.

Black-stained solid oak with lacquer has undergone a staining process, resulting in a black surface to alter the natural color of the wood. Colored varnish is then applied to provide a smooth and glossy surface, adding a layer of protection against wear and moisture.
