The Retrova is the kind of dining chair that earns a second look. The slim beech backrest with its single circular cut-out is the design moment — a quiet nod to mid-century industrial and post-modern design — sitting on slim brushed nickel steel legs that keep the whole silhouette light.
Sold as a set of two, the Retrova is built for everyday dining, but works equally well as a vanity chair, a hallway seat, or an occasional chair where you need extra seating without permanent bulk.
Key features
A real design statement — The circular cut-out in the solid beech backrest is the kind of detail that turns a “dining chair” into a “favourite chair.” Distinctive, but never loud.
Comfortable enough for a real dinner — A cushioned seat built on a high-resilience foam pad, generous on first impression and supportive over long meals. Wide enough at 43cm to sit properly, low enough at 46cm to slip cleanly under standard dining tables.
Stackable for compact living — Slide them under the dining table, stack them in a cupboard, tuck them behind a sofa. Perfect for compact living, small kitchens, or anyone who hosts occasionally but doesn't want six chairs out every day.
Solid beech, properly finished — Beech is one of the most respected timbers in fine furniture, prized for its fine grain and strength. Each Retrova backrest is hand-finished in a warm vintage walnut tone — chosen to coordinate with our Vintro, Modra and Aera ranges.
Made to order, delivered in 5 weeks — Built and finished by hand in our workshop, then shipped directly to your door.
