Description
With its beautiful proportions and superb craftsmanship, we think the Marylebone chair is a triumph of form and function. This thoroughly modern design is a fine example of traditional chair making techniques with exposed bridle joints and twin through wedged tenons. Being made from solid ash makes it a robust and practical choice for family life.
About
Husband and wife team Rod and Alison Wales have been designing furniture for more than thirty years, creating pieces of timeless design, mostly in wood. Their design philosophy is characterized by what they see as “a robust, unelaborated elegance rooted in a pragmatic understanding of materials and processes”.
