The
Africa chair, an iconic reissue by
Afra and Tobia Scarpa for the Italian house
Tacchini, is more than a seat, it tells a story. Sculpted from wood with remarkable precision, every detail, from the Canaletto walnut veneer to the hand-crafted backrest, plays delicately with light and highlights the wood’s natural grain. The space between the backrest and rear legs elevates the chair into a totemic silhouette, paying tribute to the ancient art of fine woodworking. Africa thus stands as a sculptural piece where structure, form, and emotion are in perfect harmony.
