Soft Curves, Exceptional Comfort
The Abby Dining Chair by Porada brings a beautifully inviting quality to the dining room, combining softly rounded upholstery with the natural warmth of finely crafted timber. Designed by Gabriele & Oscar Buratti, its generous proportions and welcoming silhouette create a chair that feels immediately comfortable, encouraging you to linger around the table long after dinner has been served. Every curve has been thoughtfully considered, giving Abby a sophisticated presence without sacrificing the relaxed comfort that makes a dining chair truly enjoyable.
Crafted From Timber With Character
The frame is crafted from solid ash or Canaletta walnut, giving Abby a reassuring sense of strength while allowing the natural beauty of the wood to become part of the design. Canaletta walnut is particularly prized for its durability, rich warmth and naturally varied grain, meaning every frame has subtle differences that make it uniquely its own. The choice of carefully finished timber brings a refined, tactile quality to the chair and ensures it can remain a beautiful part of the home for years to come.
Made for Long, Comfortable Evenings
Abby's softly upholstered seat and back create an ergonomic, supportive shape that makes it particularly comfortable around the dining table. The design is available with or without armrests, allowing you to choose between the clean versatility of the armless chair or the additional support and more enveloping feel of the armchair. Either version brings the same carefully tailored character, making Abby a natural choice for dining spaces where comfort is just as important as visual appeal.
A Chair That Completes the Room
With its softly sculpted form and luxurious upholstery, Abby has the versatility to complement a wide range of dining tables and interior styles. Choose a rich walnut frame to create a warm, sophisticated setting, or introduce a lighter timber finish for a fresher contemporary atmosphere. Whether used around a statement dining table, as part of a refined kitchen setting or within a more relaxed entertaining space, the Porada Abby Dining Chair brings together enduring materials, considered comfort and Italian craftsmanship in a piece designed to make every seat feel like the best one in the room.
