Tactile and comfortable
The soft feel and superb comfort level of velvet has rightfully secured its place in our hearts and our homes. The tactile touch creates an irresistible allure that will draw you in to take a seat.

Embrace space
Also known as a cantilever base, the unique d-shape structure of the chair's tubular iron frame gives a greater sense of openness to your dining room, with its clever use of the space between.

Modern aesthetics
A hallmark of modernism, Breuer's minimalist approach to ornamentation and the use of materials results in an innovative design that is visually light, encompassing elements of transparency and simplicity.

Rest easy
The rattan backrest features an appealing open-weave structure that allows more air to circulate through. It's framed by a solid oak wood border for durability and aesthetics.

Stylish and comfortable, with a relaxed lean. These chairs are a great blend of style and comfort—the velvet seats feel plush, and the Cesca-style backs add a nice vintage touch. They have a noticeable lean, so they’re better suited as relaxed dining chairs rather than for working at a table. That said, they’re very comfortable for longer sitting. Assembly was quick and easy, and they arrived well-packaged to prevent any damage. Overall, a great choice if you’re after something stylish and cozy for casual use. |

These chairs are stunning. The quality is beautiful and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. They make a simple room look really bougie with the combination of textures yet minimal design - I love them! They are simple to assemble, came quickly with no issues and in perfect condition. Would recommend. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Love these chairs. So comfy, you kind of sink into the seat a bit. Look super premium because of the real wood backs. One of the chairs has the cushion the wrong way round and Temple and Webster customer service immediately organised a replacement. Can't fault them, great service, great product. |

Had been wanting replica cesca chairs for a while and was delighted to see that T&W sold them too! Super easy to build, and the chair is surprisingly comfortable! It leans back quite a bit but not a big deal. ![]() ![]() |

Great value chair although we ordered 10 & you can tell they're from different batches (different heights, different colour on the backs). All in all still a great chair & crazy good value. |

Great chairs, maybe not the best as dining room chairs as they lean quite far back. Back otherwise really great and comfortable. Beautiful too and good quality. |

Looks good, but not the most comfortable. The back rest is a bit too far back, so when using it you are quite reclined. |

I give this a 3 star rating purely based on comfort and quality. 5/5 for style, they look great aesthetically but if you are after comfort and support for back I wouldn’t recommend. |
