Conjure Images of Italian Design with a Touch of the Orient


November 2, 2009

Emu

Amanda Somers of Spacify, Modern Contemporary Furniture wrote, "There’s magic in wicker, the innovative fiber that combines an extremely natural look with extraordinary resistance to bad weather and sunlight. A thousand-year-old craft, wicker maintains shape and color over years and is more durable than natural fibers. Emu makes wicker furniture using the company’s excellent advanced technology. The company’s product line contains pieces that are stylish, durable and create a great impression. 

The Dafne Wicker Armchair shows that style can coexist with tradition. An Italian design with a slight Oriental touch, it conjures up images of rest and relaxation, whether it’s in your own garden or on the terrace of a luxury villa by the sea. Woven and built with wicker, the armchair comes with wide curved armrests that are reminiscent of a Buddhist Pagoda! Available in natural and brown colors that complement the outdoors, it has an unusual flowing structure that is as comfortable as it looks 

Emu’s collection seems full of hidden shapes and surprises.

Another classic, the Nilo Round Table looks almost like an hourglass. Designed by Alfredo Chairamonte and Mark Marin for Emu, it’s a harmonious combination of tempered glass tabletop and wicker. The best part about this exquisite wicker design? It fits into an indoor as well as outdoor setting."

If you want to feel like you are at an Italian villa resting and relaxating, consider Emu furniture to help create this feeling.
