Supported by slender frames, the structure emphasizes simplicity, minimizing materials. "SESTINA LUX" elegantly expresses "Japanese refinement" with a simple and orderly composition, seamlessly blending into Japanese-style rooms or rooms with tatami flooring. The legs are made of cherry wood. The design evokes a sense of floating, visually light and spacious.
Despite its slim appearance, the seat achieves depth and high comfort. Not only is the seating comfortable, but also resting your feet feels pleasant. The ottoman enhances comfort during sofa time.
