A striking and highly sculptural lounge chair produced by Driade in Italy in 1996. The design combines a beautifully shaped wooden frame with an intricate hand-woven rope construction and a warm cognac leather seat cushion. The contrast between the solid wooden structure and the open, almost architectural rope work gives the chair a distinctive and sophisticated character.Particularly beautiful is the way the rope wraps around the curved upper frame, creating both structure and decoration. The generous proportions and outward-sweeping wooden legs give the chair a strong presence, while the natural materials add warmth and tactility. Highly decorative and a true statement piece, this is an unusual and visually powerful example of Italian design from the 1990s.About DriadeDriade is an Italian design company founded in 1968 and known for its experimental and eclectic approach to furniture.
