Explore This Amazing WorkGolf Folding Chair
Through its design, a relationship was created between the rectangular and cylindrical section elements, the latter having a special ergonomic relationship with the human body. Made from natural wood, the design guarantees great mechanical resistance. All hinge and fittings are made entirely of wood, giving the piece a more artisanal character. The bench and chair are made from Pine or Sucupira wood, and for reasons of material resistance, the dowels are made exclusively of Sucupira. The pieces are foldable, without the use of any metal mechanism, allowing for easier storage and transport.
