Seat. The seat is woven natural rattan cane set into a round ash ring. Cane is a natural material, so color and weave vary slightly from chair to chair.

Frame finishes

Montana is a compact cane dining chair: a round seat of woven natural rattan held in a solid ash ring, four rounded legs, and a T-shaped back post with a wide curved rail across the top. It brings a light, airy texture to cafe tables, breakfast nooks and small dining rooms, and the narrow 17.7 in footprint lets you fit more seats around a round table. The ash frame comes in a warm walnut finish or a deep black finish, both of which set off the honey tone of the cane. It is rated for 350 lb and suits homes as well as cafes and restaurants.

Who it is not for

• Anyone who wants an upholstered seat: see the Paros or Rachel dining chairs
• Damp or outdoor spaces, where cane can sag and wood can swell
• Households with pets that scratch woven seats

Care

Dust the cane with a soft brush and wipe it with a barely damp cloth; let it dry fully and keep it away from direct heat, which makes cane brittle. Dust the ash frame with a dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Cane and wood vary naturally in tone and weave from chair to chair.

Designer credit

The Montana chair is designed by the sohoConcept team, a contract and residential seating maker, for homes, cafes and restaurants.
