Inspired by the way pattern and texture interweave in a fabric, the Ami Ami chair (its name in Japanese literally means "to weave"), was born of the designer's wish to reproduce one of the stylistic icons typical of his country - weaving. The simple squared-off lines contrast with the richness of the weaving and this is achieved on the inner and outer surfaces through a complex industrial process that recreates the motif using a single mold.
I love these chairs. They are clear so the dining room looks larger with them at the table. I bought 10 but only use 6. Since they are stackable we always have additional seating for guests and don't have to use folding chairs. I really like the one piece design. They are very sturdy, unlike the chairs we originally bought someplace else that we had to assemble ourselves.. Karen. Wheaton, IL. Thu May 07 2015
