Klismos Upholstered Large Dining Chair

Based on the Greek Klismos designs created during the C5th BC which were often depicted on pottery.

Characteristic for the curved back rest and tapering out curved legs.

Here the chair is traditionally upholstered with webbed base and horsehair filled seats to offer modern comforts for elegant dining. This chair comes as both a large and small option depending on space and dining arrangements.

I first came across the Klismos designs as a group and fell in love with the design at the wonderful Villa Kerylos in Cap Ferrat, a revivalist villa created by the German archaeologist Theodore Reinach in 1928.

All our furniture is made in our London workshop using the finest and traditional craftsmanship available.

Dimensions:

600mm wide back of back rail

435mm wide back of seat

495mm front of seat

410mm depth of seat front to back

450mm height of seat

Details:

Grade 1 Beechwood frame, stained black.

Horsehair filled and covered upholstered seat in 1m COM

Jute webbing

Available in Oak or Ebony
