Astoria Dining Chair

Astoria Dining Chair | Franco Bizzozzero , 1999 ,Bonacina 

The Astoria Dining Chair by Bonacina, available through Niche, is a refined indoor piece that balances architectural stature with the warmth of natural materials. Part of the broader Astoria collection, the chair reflects a cohesive design language — one that brings together the solidity of solid walnut and the delicate rhythm of horizontal cord weaving in a form made for the dining table.

Its defining silhouette is shaped by a tall, upright backrest that commands presence without imposing — woven with fine horizontal strands that run edge to edge within the walnut frame, creating a panel of quiet texture and remarkable lightness. The clean, angular geometry of the frame speaks to a modernist sensibility, with open arms that extend forward in a single, deliberate line and angled rear supports that give the chair a sense of dynamic poise. Every detail is intentional — from the precise joinery of the walnut frame to the way the woven back catches and filters light across its surface.

Crafted for indoor environments, the Astoria Dining Chair combines the natural grain of walnut with understated sophistication. Its warm timber frame is brought to life by a cushioned seat in a warm terracotta red — a pairing that feels both grounded and quietly vibrant, suited to a range of dining interiors from the intimate to the considered. Generous in proportion yet light on the eye, it brings comfort and craft to every meal.

More than simply a dining chair, the Astoria is designed as a piece that elevates the table around it — anchoring the dining space with character and craftsmanship. It embodies Niche’s approach to design: timeless, tactile, and thoughtfully curated for interiors that value both form and feeling.
