Our effortlessly cool Jansen chair is thoroughly modern and possesses a pedigree that reaches back to the 18th century. We've taken a classical shape, removed the decorative embellishments popular in the neo-classical period, and stripped it down to classical straight clean lines. Using modern proportions and finishes, we've reimagined it as a 21st-century piece with a 1960s retro appeal, with a back and seat made of bleached cane in a traditional octagonal pattern. Crafted in gorgeous mahogany. Bold, stylish, and a little rustic, the Jansen Chair collection makes for a handsome dining set—with armchairs at both ends of a table—in either a modern country cottage or a worldly urban apartment.
