A woven rattan cane back set in a limewashed birch frame, above a softly upholstered linen seat — a French-style dining chair with quiet country-house elegance.
The Salcombe is French provincial ease, brought up to date. A classic square-back dining chair with a hand-woven rattan cane panel framed in solid, limewashed birch, above a generously padded seat upholstered in natural linen. The open cane back keeps the chair feeling light and airy, the limewashed timber shows its grain through a soft, weathered finish, and delicate carved florets at the seat corners lend a hand-crafted, heritage detail. Turned and fluted front legs and a curved stretcher complete the traditional French silhouette. Elegant yet relaxed, it brings texture and softness to a dining table, and works just as beautifully as an occasional chair at a desk, dressing table or in a hallway.
What sets it apart
The detail that makes it different
A plain dining chair seats a guest; the Salcombe sets the tone for the whole room. The combination of woven rattan, limewashed birch and soft linen gives it a layered, textural quality — natural, tactile and full of character — that a solid, uniform chair simply can't match. The cane back is the piece's signature: intricate, handwoven and open, it lightens the visual weight around a table so a full set never feels heavy or crowded. The neutral linen seat is deliberately versatile, sitting quietly alongside almost any table and scheme, while the limewashed frame brings warmth without darkness. Carved detailing and turned legs reward a closer look, and at a comfortable 45cm seat height it's built for lingering over long, unhurried meals.

Good to know
What's it made from?
The frame is solid birch wood in a soft limewashed finish, with a hand-woven rattan cane back panel and a padded seat upholstered in natural linen — a mix of natural materials chosen for both texture and durability.
What are the dimensions?
The chair stands 98cm tall and 51cm wide with a 47cm depth. The seat sits at a comfortable 45cm height, with a backrest measuring 44cm tall by 39cm wide — a generous, supportive size for dining.
Can I buy a set?
Yes — the Salcombe is designed to be bought as a pair or a full set around a dining table. Simply add the quantity you need to your basket. The open cane back keeps a full set feeling light rather than crowded.
How do I care for it?
Dust the frame and cane with a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush to reach into the weave. Spot-clean the linen seat gently as needed. Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight and avoid damp, which can affect natural rattan over time.
