Why is it less?

The same piece as the Italian-leather dining chairs of the direct-to-consumer studios - sourced honestly.

The studio original lists at $845 per chair. Same Italian-tanned leather, same solid wood frame and brass detailing, shipped direct. Set of 2, $1,495 - $748 per chair. Set of 4, $1,995 - $499 per chair.

We go to the maker

We commission directly from the atelier behind the Italian-leather dining chairs of the direct-to-consumer studios.

We hold the spec

The same materials, the same construction, the same hands. We never substitute a cheaper version.

We remove the markup

No gallery, no showroom rent, no licensing fee - only the cost of making it well.

What that gets you

  • ·Sculpted backrest wrapped in chestnut full-grain Italian-tanned leather
  • ·Removable seat cushion in fog-grey breathable weave
  • ·Solid hardwood frame in a deep mocha finish with tapered legs and brass pin accents

Attention to detail

The parts you can’t see in a photograph.

Furniture disappoints in a handful of predictable ways - and every one of them is a shortcut we refuse to take.

Eight checks between the bench and your room

Timber moisture-metered before a single cut

Joints clamped and left to fully cure

Leveled on a flat surface, rocked by hand

Dimensions measured against the spec

Every drawer and hinge cycled by hand

Finish checked in daylight-balanced light

Seams checked for pull, pucker, alignment

Re-inspected at our US hub before delivery

And if we still get it wrong

Every frame and joint is covered by our 2-year limited warranty, you have 100 nights to change your mind, and your piece is assembled in your room by our own delivery team - because the quickest way to make a well-built chair wobble is to bolt it together in the wrong order.

Not sure it’s right for your room? Book a complimentary design consultation - a specialist will talk through materials, finishes and fit before you commit.
