Manta Mid-Century Modern Dining Chair 2-PC Set

Quality reproduction of the now iconic mid-century modern dining chair, featuring genuine American Black Walnut as did the 1961 original. A modernist treasure, the manta dining chair pairs well with modern wood and glass table options.

Making the Icon

One of the differences between the Kardiel reproduction of this classic icon is the wood species. Lower quality versions use less attractive and less expensive species of wood with a brown “walnut stain” applied to it. Like the original, the Kardiel Manta reproduction is made from the actual American Black Walnut species. What you see is the natural grain and color of the walnut species. The visual difference is significant when the entire piece of furniture is made from wood. Kardiel’s reproduction of the original iconic dining chair is made in true form to the original which was first produced in 1961. It is no accident that this reproduction has the most quality features, all designed to ensure long-lasting service and great design. Like the original, the plywood is molded to the exact curvature and dimension, creating soft contours that invite you to relax for an extended period. The exact back and seat tilt angle puts the sitter in the unique position originally intended.

This high-quality reproduction features all of the quality construction points and has a good posture of civility and solid form at a fraction of the original cost.
