Chair Elhajj

The CHAIR ELHAJJ is a solid teak dining chair measuring 45.00 cm in width, 51.00 cm in depth, and 97.00 cm in total height. Designed with a vertical slat backrest, the frame consists of interconnected kiln-dried teak wood components assembled using traditional joinery techniques. The seat platform is positioned at standard dining height, supported by four straight cylindrical legs reinforced by dual H-stretchers running horizontally between the front and rear supports.

Teak wood comprises the entirety of the visible structure. The material features a tight, straight grain pattern with a natural golden-brown coloration containing inherent natural oils that resist moisture and decay. Artisans sand the surfaces down to a smooth finish without concealing the organic wood characteristics, knots, and subtle color variations inherent to plantation-grown Tectona grandis. The timber density contributes to the overall physical weight of 11.00 kg, providing substantial mass that prevents sliding or tipping during regular use.

Each chair occupies a shipping volume of 0.2200 m3 when packed. The 97.00 cm height of the backrest includes a gently curved top rail, measuring approximately 7 cm in depth at its center, designed to match the lumbar curvature of the human spine. Four vertical wooden slats, each measuring roughly 3 cm in width, connect the top rail to the seat frame, maintaining a consistent 2 cm gap between individual members. The seat itself is constructed from a solid teak plank shaped with subtle edge profiling to reduce pressure points along the thighs of the occupant.

Structurally, the chair relies on mortise and tenon joints secured with interior dowels, eliminating visible metal fasteners on the primary surfaces. The legs taper slightly toward the floor, terminating in flat, flush bases that rest evenly on hard flooring surfaces. The 45.00 cm width of the seat tapers marginally toward the rear junction with the backrest posts, accommodating standard dining table clearances and allowing multiple units to sit flush side by side.

Maintenance requirements for the CHAIR ELHAJJ involve routine dusting with a dry microfiber cloth and periodic application of teak oil or clear sealer to preserve the original tone and prevent ultraviolet degradation if placed near direct sunlight. The solid wood construction permits minor surface sanding to remove scratches or marks acquired through daily domestic or commercial environments. The absence of upholstered components simplifies cleaning procedures, making the seating option suitable for high-traffic dining rooms, cafes, or conference areas where fabric maintenance presents logistical challenges. The physical dimensions allow it to slide completely underneath standard 75 cm high dining tables, clearing floor space when the seating is unoccupied.
