Crafted from leather over mohena wood, this chair displays the beauty of colonial handicrafts. Peruvian artisan Abel Rios creates this chair, featuring a curved seat and arms. Intricate birds and nature-inspired patterns are carefully tooled by hand into the leather, resulting in a cornucopia of beauty.

I gave this 3 stars rather than 5 because unfortunately it keeps breaking. When it arrived the back leg had pulled away from the chair. Novica was wonderful when I told them and did not charge me for the chair. I ordered another chair in its place, but not from the same artisan. I eventually found a friend who put in a screw to join the leg back on, and then used it for two months. It was very comfortable, much more so than the other chair Id ordered. But all of a sudden yesterday, the chair collapsed with me in it! Just folded up! This time the metal under the armrests has come off the armrests on both sides, and I can see that the screws that joined them to the armrest were small, just half an inch. The friend who put a screw in the back leg of the chair had told me that the one that broke was also small and he was surprised that such screws were used for weight-bearing. Id love to recommend this chair because of its comfort, but its taking time out of my life.

I needed a small chair in the bedroom and this is perfect. I am 53 and my feet actually touch the floor. I read and sew in this chair. The leather tooling is gorgeous. I think the photo makes it look smaller than it is. It will go with just about any decor. I like that it is unique!
