Why choose Bentwood chairs?Bentwood is a unique manufacturing process which involves wetting wood by soaking or steaming, and then bending it into curved shapes and patterns before allowing it to harden once more. The process – taken from the traditional creation of bentwood boxes by the indigenous First Nations of the North American west coast – is frequently used to create light seating such as dining chairs, armchairs and rocking chairs.Designer brands such as Gebrüder Thonet became widely recognised for their use of the bentwood technique, with Thonet being responsible for many of the late 19th century’s most popular seating designs including their iconic No. 14 chair. This deceptively simple chair was part of a wider collection of bentwood seating, with each piece using the process to create elegant curved chair backs out of woven cane or palm.Introducing bentwood chairs into your homeBentwood’s popularity had maintained throughout the 20th and into the 21st century, and this is no surprise. The strikingly sleek elegance the method provides has resulted in some of the most instantly recognisable chairs of the last 150 years.Part of the charm of bentwood seating is its ability to work within a variety of settings, thanks to its simple yet effective design. Of course, these laid back yet luxurious chairs are perfect additions to any dining room, but they can also be used as an attractive desk chair, kitchen seating or even as decadent outdoor furniture. Try pairing them with equally sleek wood furniture for an overall aesthetic that is pleasing in its minimalism. A set of bentwood chairs placed around a mid-century dining table instantly says luxury without the need for ornate flourish.Bentwood chairs: why shop with VinteriorSeeking out bentwood pieces by traipsing around your local market – with no guarantee of success – is now thankfully a thing of the past.
