Petite Friture Reissues René Herbst’s Iconic Sandows Collection

Drawing inspiration from traditional Japanese stick chairs, the Nama Lounge Chair expresses a balance between raw simplicity and refined craftsmanship. Its name, Nama — meaning “raw” and “natural” in Japanese — reflects a design approach rooted in honesty, both in materials and in form.

Defined by careful handcraft and a restrained aesthetic, the chair combines lightness and strength in a sculptural yet understated silhouette. Each detail contributes to a sense of calm and presence, making the piece suitable for a variety of contemporary interiors.

Alongside the lounge version, the Nama Dining Chair is designed for use around dining tables or workspaces, where its comfortable upholstered seat and elegant lines can be fully appreciated. It works equally well when arranged as a set or used individually as an accent piece.

The collection features a solid oak frame, available in natural or Coffee Black finishes, paired with a fully upholstered seat and backrest in black aniline leather, nubuck, or sand-colored linen. Offered with or without armrests, the Nama chairs bring a quiet, refined character to dining and living environments.
