Clara Reclaimed Oak Dining Chair

100% reclaimed oak, a bentwood curved backrest, distressed natural finish — at 4.5kg the Clara is as light as it is characterful, and each one entirely its own.

The bentwood chair is one of furniture design's most enduring forms — the curved, steam-bent backrest that has graced café chairs, bistro seats and farmhouse dining rooms for well over a century, immediately recognisable and immediately comfortable for the way its curve meets the back of a sitter. The Clara brings that classic silhouette in 100% reclaimed oak with a distressed natural finish that draws out the grain and the character of timber that has already lived — warm, honest and full of the kind of depth that new wood simply cannot replicate. At 4.5kg it is genuinely light, easy to move and stack, and elegant enough for both everyday family meals and more formal gatherings.

What sets it apart

The detail that makes it different

The reclaimed oak is the Clara's most important quality — the natural grain variation, the warm amber tones and the occasional mark of the timber's previous life give every chair an individual character that a chair made from new wood cannot possess. No two Clara chairs are identical, and that individuality is precisely what gives them their appeal over mass-produced alternatives. The bentwood backrest brings ergonomic comfort that a straight-backed chair does not — the curve supports the lower back naturally without requiring padding, making the Clara as comfortable for extended meals as it is beautiful to look at from across a table.
