The Sofie Side Chair is a modern update of a classic Paris bistro chair and can be found in upper end cafes, brasseries, bistros and restaurants in historical European cities and capitals throughout the world. This colorful chair is a favorite among restaurants and cafes because of its durability and how well it stacks. The Sofie side chair is handmade using the finest Malacca cane rattan, stainless hardware, and our exclusive synthetic ArtFibre that can withstand rugged use. Each chair is meticulously handcrafted using the century-old method perfected by skilled Danish cane-makers in the 1970s. This technique creates signature organic marks by bending each piece of rattan into shape. Designed for indoor or covered outdoor use, the chair's rattan frame will patina to a lovely light gray finish over time. If the original natural rattan look is desired, rub with linseed oil.
