Why Choose Seagrass Weaving for Your BC Chairs? Rustic Durability Meets Coastal Elegance


Seagrass weaving masterfully combines rustic texture, modern sophistication, and eco-responsibility—tailor-made for BC’s coastal homes, Vancouver urban lofts, and Okanagan retreats. Harvested from sustainable underwater meadows in Asia, this resilient, twisted material thrives on iconic Danish and Italian designs, including Gio Ponti ladder-back chairs (e.g., Model 646 Leggera), Peter Hvidt & Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen’s Søborg Side Chair 316, Børge Mogensen’s Armchair Model 157 (with rushing weave), Model 537 Øresund chairs (Shaker-inspired), and the enduring J39 “People’s Chair” from 1947.
