Horm Casamania Raphia Rattan Chair

Raphia is the offspring of a research project into the use of materials and how they can be exploited as furnishings.‎ It is the perfect convergence of modernity and tradition, of technology and craftsmanship.‎ An oxymoron that brings together two of the spirits of production in Italy: the metal industry and the small timehonoured manufacturers of rattan and wicker products.‎ The aim of the project is to lend a certain continuity to the tradition of crafting with rattan, one that stretches back to the beginning of the last century when the areas specialising in this craft saw schools and a culture revolving around this material thrive.‎ Today, there remain very few firms which conserve the know-how of this trade, where manual skills and craftsmanship combine to insure that every creation is unique.‎ Raphia embodies this history and tradition in a contemporary context, thanks to a harmonious balance between two materials: the metal structure is the base upon which the wicker and rattan are weaved to create the seating area.‎
