Nature's lines

Poliform says the Magnolia seating collection aims to recreate the fluidity of nature's lines, giving a natural lightness that shows the company's artisan ability. This chair is credited to Emmanuel Gallina, 2023.

Shou Sugi Ban and Cap Ferret

The two finishes, one light and one dark, are said to be inspired by the Japanese Shou Sugi Ban technique of burning cedar wood, and by the decorative style of the houses of Cap Ferret, Gallina's place of origin.
