Slab is a stackable chair, made in Lithuania using solid wood Oak. In a black finish, this modern dining chair is upholstered using leather to maximise its comfort

When we decided to design a dining chair that sat comfortably with the Slab range, we wanted something humble but with personality, modern yet looking like it had always existed, familiar yet unique - and on top of that stacking and comfortable! So, it took us a long time, as that turned out to be a particularly challenging brief. But we think we have cracked it with this chair that can sit proudly in many environments - an honest piece of skilled woodwork. Also available in Natural and without an upholstered seat. The collection includes an Individual Desk, Dining Table, Table and Bar Stool.
