Walnut PilPil Chair

The quality of craftsmanship in the Walnut PilPil chair is achieved through the work of our artisans and the selection of our local woods : Committed to the PEFC approach since 2012, this certification ensures that the wood used comes from sustainably managed forests. Like all our furniture, the walnut chair has been entirely designed and manufactured in our workshop located in Burgundy-Franche-Comté. Stylish and practical, the PilPil chair is lightweight, comfortable, and stackable, hence the name « PilPil » to emphasize that the chairs stack perfectly. The quality of the curved backrest and the flexibility of the seat are exclusive and offer optimal comfort! Customizable, the chair is also available in several local wood species: beech, ash, oak, maple..

Exceptional natural finish

We apply only natural oil to Delavelle chairs to showcase the beauty of natural wood. The wood remains free of harmful substances and retains all its excellent properties. It breathes, absorbs moisture, and gradually releases it into the ambient air, ensuring a healthy and pleasant indoor climate. The final sanding and oil application are done by hand to ensure a flawless finish and touch. The oil used complies with the toy standard EN 71-3 for child safety.

PEFC Wood from the Country

The wood used comes from forests near our workshop, less than 2 km for some. Since 2012, we have had the PEFC label (Pan European Forest Certification), a guarantee that the worked wood comes from sustainably managed forests. Our wood supplies are regularly checked by an independent organization.
