In the Magnolia chairs by Poliform, as well as in the namesake upholstery collection, the idea is to recreate the fluidity of nature's lines. What emerges is a natural lightness, expressing Poliform's craftsmanship in the technical refinement of its execution. The Magnolia chair collection is available in two finishes, one light and one dark, inspired by the Japanese Shou Sugi Ban technique, with which cedar wood is burnt to make it more resistant, but also by the decorative style typical of the houses in Cap Ferret, Gallina's place of origin.
