What ITOKI highlights

  • Solid chestnut seat and back

    The seat and back are cut and shaped from Japanese chestnut by Karimoku Furniture. The finish keeps the wood grain visible.

  • Non-slip seat surface

    The seat surface is treated so you do not slide on the bare wood.

  • Aluminium five-leg base

    A painted die-cast aluminium base carries twin-wheel nylon casters and a gas lift for height.

As described by ITOKI on its official pages; not a Chairpedia assessment.
