Tessa

Every constructive detail of the Tessa armchair is a clue to the great complexity that lies behind its seeming simplicity.‎ The kind of simplicity that stems from the ingenuity and hand-craftsmanship inherent to the concept of the product itself.‎The structure is made entirely of solid ash or turned Canaletto walnut.‎ The traditional joinery requires expert craftsmanship and gently exalts the natural texture and feel of the wood.‎ An ancient art that dates back to Italian rural tradition, the delicate yet strong woven paper rush cord in the seat and backrest is also finely hand-crafted.‎ Soft optional cushions held in place by slender straps add a deeper sense of welcome to the Tessa armchair.‎The Tessa family includes an armchair, ottoman, bench and a coffee table with marble top, available in a number of types of marble.‎Structure in solid Canaletto walnut with natural finish; or, stained Canaletto walnut extra or coffee; or, in solid ash with natural finish or stained walnut, cherry, teak, coffee, wenge, ebony or brown.‎ Woven paper rush cordSeat/backrest cushion (for the armchair only) in blown polyester fiber; upon request, with upchargeFeet in die-cast zama with satin, chrome, black chrome, burnished or champagne finish.‎ Feet rest on tips made of thermoplastic materialSeat and backrest cushion upholstery is removable in both the fabric and leather versions
