Inspired by the Congo River

The Congo River Wooden Chair brings together bold character, natural warmth, and distinctive craftsmanship. Inspired by the untamed spirit of the Congo River, its strong silhouette and organic details make it a striking addition to the home. Use it as a dining chair paired with a Lighouse dining table, a statement accent chair, or as versatile occasional seating.

Handcrafted with Natural Wood

Each Congo River Chair is handcrafted in South Africa by skilled artisans using a strong Spruce wood frame. The natural character of the wood adds warmth and texture, while the sturdy construction provides lasting durability. Its flowing lines and carefully crafted details reflect the organic movement of the river that inspired its design.

A Distinctive Design for Your Space

With its bold silhouette, clean lines, and handcrafted details, the Congo River Chair brings depth and personality to an interior. Its versatile design works beautifully across dining rooms, living spaces, bedrooms, and other areas where a statement chair can add character.

These 100% recycled polyester fabrics offer stain resistance and a 25,000-rub rating, providing practical durability while maintaining a soft and comfortable finish.
