A set of four visually striking and impressive late 1960s Conoid-style teak dining chairs in the manner of George Nakashima.

Highly figured solid teak, with cantilevered contoured seats and six back slats in its natural color. Legs, sides, and top are stained a darker shade. A well-crafted homage to George Nakashima’s iconic Conoid Studio-inspired chairs, with the same daring and inventive geometry. Features a pair of long-footed legs that transition into perfectly angled sides formed of a single tapered element, atop which is a curved extended backrest.

Each chair has a very handsome and commanding presence, and weighs a substantial 30 lbs.
