De La Espada Twenty-Five Chair with Manta Gil Upholstery is upholstered in a Manta Alentejana, a traditional blanket from the Alentejo region of Portugal with a heritage reaching back over a century. The pattern and colours of the textile were custom-designed and traditionally woven by artisan blanket-weavers. The alignment of the pattern across the chair was selected to achieve the most aesthetically pleasing composition.
