Oaki Dining Chair
Details

Nordic know-how meets the art of Japanese joinery in the expressive Oaki chair. The chair was inspired by the simplicity and artistry that characterises traditional Japanese wood craftsmanship. The designer set out to conceal the chair’s joins, giving Oaki a refined, uniquely weightless character that looks seamless in appearance.

Each leg rises from the floor to the full height of the chair, cradling the backrest between all four. The rear legs are angled backward from the seat, meeting the floor behind the chair rather than underneath it. The position of the legs makes the chair come alive as they appear to step backward. Crafted in solid oak and finished in smoked oak, lightly oiled oak or with a dark black sheen, and with a leather seat padding option, Oaki is rich in detail  and loaded with character.
