This set of four Scandinavian chairs in solid pine and ecru fabric with a large grey grid pattern brings a perfectly balanced second-hand vintage touch to a contemporary table. Their light wood, combined with the seat covered in new fabric, creates a sober ensemble that is easy to incorporate into a dining room or kitchen. The seat height, designed for everyday use, offers natural comfort while the backrest comfortably supports prolonged meals. Their sleek appearance pairs just as well with a wooden table as with a more mineral tabletop, without weighing down the space. Around a meal, they readily welcome ceramic plates, clear glasses, and a low bouquet placed in the center of the table.

A brief history of the chair
In the Middle Ages, sitting on a chair with a backrest was a rare privilege, reserved for the person who led the assembly: the "president" (from the Latin praesidere, to sit in front). Long a symbol of prestige compared to the benches and stools of the common people, the chair only became democratized in the 18th century to become an everyday object. It is distinguished from the armchair by the absence of armrests, a structure designed to offer complete freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest for lightness and solidity, it has evolved from carved solid wood to more modern lines, making each seat a witness to the history of comfort.
