The Light chair by Pietro Costantini draws on over a century of Italian woodworking tradition, handcrafted in San Giovanni al Natisone since the house's founding in 1922. This Italian design dining chair distills commanding proportions — a tall, fully upholstered backrest rising to throne-like stature — into a form that feels both sculptural and quietly purposeful.

Beech wood side elements frame the upholstered body like architectural columns, lending visible warmth and structural definition to the silhouette. At the crown of the backrest, an integrated metal handle introduces an unexpected counterpoint: cool, slender, precise. It invites the hand before the eye fully registers it, turning the simple act of repositioning a chair into something considered. This single detail elevates the Light from seating to object — a chair that announces its presence at the head of any table.

Standing 121 cm tall, the Light commands attention in formal dining rooms, open-plan residences, and hospitality interiors where seating must hold its own against generous ceilings and expansive layouts. Its 65.5 × 45.5 cm footprint keeps the profile restrained enough for continuous runs along a long table, though its proportions are most striking as an accent — paired at the heads or placed as solo statements in executive settings. Pietro Costantini offers an extensive range of upholstery options, including fabrics and leathers, with frame finishes tailored to each project's palette.

Frequently asked questions

What upholstery and finish options are available?
Pietro Costantini provides an extensive material library spanning fabrics and leathers, with coordinating wood and metal finishes. Contact us to request samples or discuss specifications for your project.

Which spaces suit the Light chair's proportions?
The 121 cm backrest height is designed for rooms with generous ceiling clearance — formal dining rooms, double-height living areas, and hospitality venues. In lower-ceilinged spaces, it works beautifully as a singular accent piece rather than a full set.
