Sweel Lounge Chair

In 1923, Antonio Calligaris founded his small artisanal furniture business with the "Marocca" chair, distinguished by gently curved wood legs and a handwoven rush seat. For decades, the company continued to specialize in handmade wood furniture, until strides in manufacturing automation as well as a proliferation of new materials, metals, plastics, glass, fabrics, helped Calligaris to expand the variety of its contemporary furniture and improve the speed with which it was made. Today, the extensive line of Calligaris chairs, tables, living room, and bedroom furniture is found in modern homes worldwide.
