Every detail of the construction of the
Tessa armchair reveals the great complexity that lies behind apparent simplicity; the latter, however, is merely the result of ingenuity and handiwork, inherent in the product's concept.
The structure is made entirely of solid ash or Canaletto walnut and the joints are created in the traditional way; this manufacturing process requires great skill and fully expresses the poetic materiality of the warm and noble material that is wood. The lightweight, robust seat and back are hand-woven from marshland reeds, an ancient art that goes back to the Italian rural tradition. Optional soft cushions secured with minimalist ribbons make
Tessa an even more welcoming armchair.
