Know before you buy
No, the chair arrives fully assembled and is ready for immediate use right out of the box.
Yes, the chair is crafted for durability, though natural rattan performs best in indoor environments. Because it is a natural material, it is recommended to keep it away from direct moisture or extreme humidity to maintain its structural integrity.
The chair features a curved backrest and seat designed to follow the natural contours of the body. While it provides excellent support for dining or lounging, it does not include upholstered cushions, offering a firm, structured feel.
No, the Athena chair is not stackable. Its design prioritizes a modern, sculptural silhouette over space-saving storage features.
The seat height is 21.7 inches from the floor. You should measure your dining table to ensure this height provides adequate legroom for your specific setup.
