INODA+SVEJE created the TANGĀLI dining chair with the intention of making a big and spacious chair. It comes in two variants - with arms and without - and can be used as a dining chair or as a desk chair at a study table.
The core of the chair is made of teak and cane and features the signature TANGĀLI cane weave, specially developed by INODA+SVEJE for this collection. Special seat cushions have been designed to fit the frame of the chair, with cut-outs for the arms and the back, and can be purchased optionally. The default colour for the cushion is the light cream 'Taboga Dove', but it can also be ordered in a selection of colours from the cotton/linen blended Andaman fabric family.
Wood finish: Natural Teak / Dark Stain
Weave type: Wrap around weave
Having seen the level of skill and dexterity of our cane weavers during their first visit in 2017, INODA+SVEJE pushed our weavers to make patterns that are not traditional to Indian furniture that is now the signature style of the TANGĀLI collection. The contours of the pieces in this collection are completely shaped by hand. We decided to name the collection after the cool monsoon breeze that accompanied their visit to Bangalore - TANGĀLI means cool breeze in the Kannada language (spoken locally in Bangalore where the Phantom Hands workshop is based).
