Mario Gagliardi Chairs
Amatera $3,280

A comfortable sofa bench designed to shine while being optically light, unlike the heavy volumes of conventional couches which can weigh down a space. Amatera was Inspired by the sight of the sun at the moment when it just touches the sea. Waves and light refraction are expressed through hand-sewn padded tucks on seat and backrest.

Named after Amaterasu, the Japanese goddess of the sun, this handcrafted bench features a soft padded cushion covered with fabric over a plywood shell resting on hand-lathed legs in solid open-pore black laquered Ash.

The backrest is removable so that when you have more than one Amatera, you can assemble creative color combinations of seat and backrest.
