Formal elegance and measured proportions characterise Tilly solid wood dining chairs. Tilly modern chair shows the craftmanship that most represents Porada’s vision, and the high quality of the materials used. This unique model highlights the solid wood processing in the back rest, that is carved to obtain an organic shape.
The wood is walnut, available in a natural wood finish, Moka or Wengé stained, or matt lacquered in the colours of the collection. The upholstered seat cushions give a unique comfort to these chairs, and they are available in any fabric or leather of the collection or in customer own material. Tilly is a piece where the high quality of the natural wood is expressed, created with a modern and contemporary design with organic shapes, perfect for different styles.
This modern chair comes in a slightly different version in ash-wood, and it’s called Tiara.
