The Camden Dining Chair - Elm & Rattan

Solid elm, handwoven rattan, 5kg — the dining chair that makes an entire room feel considered, at a price point that makes a set of six genuinely possible.

The Camden is the kind of dining chair that changes the room it enters. Handcrafted from solid elm wood in a warm walnut brown finish, with a fully handwoven natural rattan seat and curved backrest, it brings an artisanal, organic quality to a dining space that upholstered or painted chairs simply cannot replicate. The combination of elm and rattan — two natural materials that have been used together in furniture making for generations — creates a harmony that only natural materials achieve together.

What sets it apart

The detail that makes it different

The defining quality of the Camden is the interplay between its two primary materials. The solid elm frame brings structural strength, natural grain character and the warm tonal depth that makes elm one of the most sought-after timbers in furniture making. The handwoven rattan seat and curved backrest layer a completely different texture on top — the woven pattern adds visual interest and tactile warmth, while the natural rattan tone complements the walnut brown frame with the kind of harmonious contrast that only materials grown rather than manufactured can achieve.

The gently curved backrest is not just aesthetic — it provides genuine seated support, making this a chair that works as well for a long Sunday lunch as it does for an everyday family dinner. At just 5kg it is one of the lightest solid wood dining chairs available, easy to move and reposition without sacrificing the solidity and durability of a properly crafted wooden frame. No assembly required — it arrives ready to place straight from the box.
