Vela Chair

<p>Vela is a chair with a solid wood structure assembled by interlocking. It is available in two versions: in hand-planed Italian walnut or sanded maple. The entire manufacturing and finishing process is carried out manually in our workshop. Juglans Regia – common Italian walnut – not dried but “raw”, belongs to the Latin tradition of furniture-making. It features an extremely compact fibre which can, however, be worked without too much difficulty; it is therefore highly suitable for household items. Maple is a wood from the temperate European zone traditionally used for musical instruments; it has a subtle, fine grain, very distinctive, and characteristic white colour. The upward tapering on the legs of this chair makes it even lighter, giving the structure a new freshness.</p>
