Soothe your senses with this chaise / bench, featuring hand woven vegetable dyed soft leather strips (produced without the use of chemicals), and matching head rest roll stuffed with polypropylene pearls.

Chaises are woven using only "first flower" leather, from the best producers in Germany, Holland, France and Switzerland, and tanned using ancient methods in Tuscany (in the villages located on the hills at the border between Florence and Pisa).

Leathers are slow tanned using extracts from Chestnut and Mimosa trees, then softened with animal fats in wooden barrels, air dried, refined with natural dyes, and polished with amber stone. The result is a soft and tactile material that, when placed in the expert hands of leather artisans, produces objects possessing truly unique characteristics straddling the ancient and the modern worlds, and which are destined to change in appearance over time, getting better with age.

The characteristic veining and marks of leather denote pure authenticity and naturalness, a unique characteristic of vegetable tanning. The ARTE&CUOIO products are guaranteed with the seal of the “Consorzio Vera Pelle Italiana Conciata al Vegetale”.

Base in solid natural Oak with Iron legs. Hand made in Italy.
