Materials

Top Grain Cowhide Leather
The seat and backrest are constructed from handwoven strips of top-grain Indonesian cowhide. Soft yet resilient, the leather offers natural give and flexibility while retaining structure. Its basket-weave pattern provides breathable support and rich visual texture that develops character over time.

Sustainably Sourced Teak Wood
The frame is made from sustainably sourced Indonesian teak — a high-density hardwood known for its strength, longevity, and resistance to moisture. Naturally finished to showcase its grain, the teak offers both visual warmth and structural integrity.

Webbing & Joinery
Each leather strip is tensioned using durable webbing techniques, supported by traditional teak joinery that reinforces the chair’s form without visible fasteners.

Design

Silhouette
Inspired by the iconic Cuba Chair by Carl Hansen & Søn, this version preserves the same open, airy profile while updating the original rope weave with rich leather. The proportions feel timeless and intentional — equally suited to modern or traditional interiors.

Recline Angle
The seat leans back slightly at a gentle angle, promoting a naturally relaxed posture. This subtle recline, paired with the flexible leather support, makes it ideal for longer lounging without additional cushions.

Weaving Pattern
The interlaced leather basket weave isn’t just decorative — it offers a balanced combination of support and breathability. The spacing is carefully calibrated to ensure ergonomic comfort while allowing airflow.

Frame Detailing
Tapered teak legs and rounded edges create a visual lightness, while the exposed grain and sculpted joints highlight the material’s craftsmanship. The overall construction feels both grounded and refined.

Questions About The Leather Cuba Chair

How long until I receive my order?

The Leather Cuba Chair arrives approximately 3-4 Weeks from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Leather Cuba Chair can be returned after receiving the order if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

Judge us by our looks

Our packaging is safe, simple, and proudly no frills. We don't think it makes sense to pay for things you throw away immediately.

That's why the Leather Cuba Chair ships in the same protective packaging the manufacturer uses, covered in functional stickers and foreign stamps showing the journey it's been on.

We don't hide it and wear it as a badge of honor for the places our products have been and the people who made them.
