Catania

The Catania cast aluminum patio chair has a real presence to it. The high back alone sets it apart from your average patio chair.

The standout feature is the woven resin weave that covers both the back and seat, done in a sharp chevron pattern. The warm brown tones with darker shadow stripes running through it give it a rich, almost herringbone-like quality. It's the kind of weave pattern you'd expect on a well-made piece of indoor furniture, which is part of what makes it feel a cut above outdoors.

The tall, gently curved back is particularly nice, and it offers real back support while giving the chair a slightly throne-like stature.

The cast aluminum frame underneath is dark and understated. The arms have a gentle ergonomic curve to them with a slight flare at the end, and the legs splay just enough to feel stable and well-planted. The small ball feet finish things off neatly at the base.

What's clever about this chair is the combination of materials. The warmth and texture of the woven weave playing against the cool solidity of the dark metal frame. It would look right at home on a covered lanai or a more formal outdoor dining setup.

These fully-welded and stackable outdoor dining chairs are available in dining and bar height.
