Inspiration
Entertaining and hospitality are core to the culture of Newfoundland & Labrador. Designers Joe Nunn and Markus Bergstrom (Glass Hill) used elegantly simple lines to develop a seating series that plays a supporting role to the Dining Room views, culinary experiences, and memory making at Fogo Island Inn.The Dining Chair, Armless Chair, and Chair-and-a-half are honest and humble hosts. The Dining Chair is durable and dependable, having withstood a decade of use within Fogo Island Inn. It provides unembellished comfort for marathon meals and intimate conversation. Mix and match the Dining series for a livelier dinner party with contrasting personalities.
Fabrication
Made using regionally sourced birch by our craftspeople at Fogo Island Workshops. Available in a range of finishes including hand-buffed Danish Oil, which deepens the amber colour of the wood, and White Oil, which neutralizes the amber tone for a raw matte look. Both absorb into the wood and richen the grain. A variety of coloured lacquers are available.The seat is upholstered in classic Kvadrat Divina upholstery–100% wool that is ethically and responsibly sourced. It is naturally stain resistant and provides lifelong durability rating of 45,000 Martindale rub tests. Please inquire about our Client’s Own Material service and custom finishes.
