At Sebastian Blakeley Designs, furniture is more than functional – it is an expression of individuality and artistry. Our bespoke handcrafted Toro and Antìlope dining chairs can be elevated even further by inviting a client’s favourite artist to hand-paint the back panel. A collaboration of this calibre creates an extraordinarily beautiful and unique dining suite, a combination of master craftsmanship and fine art. The result - a perfectly designed, one-of-a-kind collectors set. More than a statement of style, these chairs have the depth and meaning to become treasured family heirlooms, passed down through generations as timeless expressions of both craft and creativity.
