RIO Dining armChair
Mid-Century Architectural Dining Seating with Contoured Lumbar Support
The Rio Dining Armchair combines the warmth of solid wood with the comfort of an upholstered seat. Its curved wooden backrest extends into short armrests, offering a supportive seating position while keeping the overall design open and lightweight.
Unlike fully upholstered dining armchairs, Rio leaves its wooden construction visible. The slender, angled legs and gently rounded backrest give the chair a distinctive profile without adding unnecessary bulk around the dining table.
Rio is a good choice for those who enjoy the comfort of an armchair but prefer the cleaner proportions of a wooden dining chair. Its curved form pairs particularly well with oval and rectangular dining tables, making it suitable for both everyday dining and longer gatherings.
Designed for contemporary and mid-century modern dining spaces, the Rio Dining Chair is made to order in Malaysia by NICCHRIS, with a selection of upholstery fabrics and wood stains available.
Ergonomic Lumbar Arc
Precision-contoured crest rail cradles the lower back naturally, featuring an open negative-space cutout that enhances breathability and spatial openness.
Solid Hardwood Chassis
Engineered with traditional mortise-and-tenon timber joinery and splayed rear legs designed to withstand dynamic lateral loads without joint racking.
Table Coordination & Custom Finishes
With its streamlined armless profile, the Rio Dining Chair tucks completely beneath standard dining table aprons to maximize walkway clearance in open dining layouts and apartments. Tailor the solid ash framework in hand-rubbed timber stains—including Natural Ash, Warm Walnut tones, Dark Walnut, Matte Black, and White Wash—finished with high-density fixed cushions in tactile Belgian fabrics or easy-clean synthetic leather.
