Mantis Side Chair by BassamFellows is a chair with strong and elegant contrasts. Made of solid wood, it displays both rigid lines in its structure and curves in the seat and backrest to optimise comfort. Visually light but very sturdy, each Mantis chair is unique and will enhance a dining room table. Mantis is entirely carved from solid wood, and the finishes never hide the natural beauty of the wood, which forms a fine patina over time. The joints are reinforced with steel pins to ensure strength and longevity. Without a cushion, the seat's ergonomic shape allows you to sit for hours chatting, working or dining. Inspired by the praying mantis, Mantis is the type of chair that works equally well in both private and public spaces.
