Granada Butterfly Occasional Chair - Licorice

The Granada Butterfly Occasional Chair in Licorice has a visible galvanised steel frame and a woven seat in 2.5mm resin. Arms sit at 520mm, and the chair measures 66cm wide, 70cm deep and 77cm high. It arrives fully assembled.

Leaving the frame visible is the design decision here. Most outdoor chairs bury the structure inside the weave; the butterfly form puts the steel on show as a line, which is why the chair looks light despite carrying a full-size lounging seat.

Galvanised steel rather than plain powder-coated steel matters outdoors, because the zinc layer underneath keeps working after the coating has been chipped. The 2.5mm resin gauge is the other checkable number: weave thickness is what decides whether a seat holds its shape or sags, and a supplier that publishes it has measured it. Arms at 520mm are low and wide, which suits lounging rather than sitting up to a table.
