The Ella Dining Chair exemplifies Matthew Hilton’s functional approach to furniture design, in which a focus on purpose and practicality is combined with contemporary style. Featuring a sleek and durable steel frame, and tactile boucle upholstery, the chair is as comfortable as it is stylish. A distinct wrap-around form creates a sense of relaxation and tranquillity as the chair’s ‘wings’ surround you.
Also available with a wood frame.
