Cresta Chair by Jorg Boner
Solid Quality
For those who wonder why we need to add another new chair to the millions of existing designs, the answer is simple: the world doesn't have enough beautifully designed and crafted chairs like the Cresta chair.
Designed by Jorg Boner for the Swiss manufacturer Dadadum, the Cresta chair has a slick, contemporary shape with its seat constructed from solid organic ash wood instead of the more common (and cheaper) moulded plywood or plastic. The quality of the chair is immediately apparent with the beautifully finished joints and the solid feel when you sit on it. The Cresta chair is perfectly in tune with Dadadum's philosophy of honest, functional design combined with quality craftsmanship. This is a timeless chair that will appeal to design lovers who understand the true value of quality.
