Hooker Furniture Castella Upholstered Side Chair
Best choice for homeowners seeking elegant, old-world charm in dining spaces.
Commanding attention in any space, the impressive scaling of the Castella Collection combines with classic design elements including scrolls, serpentine shapes, rope twist molding, acanthus leaf details and fleur-de-lis accents to create old world charm. Infused with emotion, the collection's exuberant scale and timeless motifs define its casually opulent style. Presented in an updated mid-tone brown finish with a beautiful patina, Castella offers Classic European design with an updated twist. Hooker Furniture uses carefully chosen solid wood and select wood veneers over durable wood products in our furniture construction. Use of veneers enables more decorative looks unattainable with solid wood. Veneers are used over durable wood products such as medium density fiberboard (MDF) and particle board, made of renewable resources. MDF and particle board are used in quality furniture for areas that need to be stable, such as large surfaces. These durable wood products do not expand and contract with heat and cold and do not absorb moisture as much as solid wood, which results in stronger and longer-lasting furniture.
