    Description

    Tessa is an exercise in tactility, a rich and refined armchair that unites various facets of classic Italian craftsmanship. The structure is made entirely from solid ash or turned Canaletta walnut using traditional joinery methods that gently exalt the look and feel of the wood. This organic celebration of natural materials is further completed by the woven paper rush cord seat and back. There is also the option of additional soft seat and back cushions that are held in place by slender straps. The Tessa family includes an armchair, ottoman, bench and a coffee table with marble top, available in a number of types of marble.

  • Price Promise

    Our Price Promise

    We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.

    It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.

    Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.

    And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.
