Itaca Dining Chair

Itaca Dining Chair by Talenti: Outdoor Ease with Architectural Poise

Designed by Carlo Colombo for Talenti’s Itaca collection, the Itaca dining chair brings a calm, sculptural clarity to alfresco dining. Its character is set by a continuous gesture: a solid Accoya wood base that rises into a softly curved backrest, mirroring the silhouette of the collection’s living chair. The shape isn’t a flourish—it’s the source of its comfort. You feel it in the way the back supports the spine, in the way the seat invites lingering conversations long after the plates are cleared.

Built for outdoor life, the Itaca dining chair has that rare balance between simplicity and detail. The base, crafted in Accoya—a performance timber prized for dimensional stability and all‑weather endurance—anchors the piece with quiet confidence. Finishes speak to both tactility and tone: a refined Palissandro (rosewood) look paired with Milk White textiles for a crisp, luminous feel, or Accoya rendered with textiles in Jungle, Milk White, or Sunflower for more expressive atmospheres. Each combination is intentional, tuned to the Itaca palette so dining spaces align effortlessly with the rest of the collection.

Comfort, Curated for the Elements

Colombo’s approach is transparent here: geometry that serves the body, materials that serve the climate. The Itaca dining chair resists swelling, cracking, and the usual outdoor fatigue thanks to Accoya’s advanced acetylation process. Fabrics are outdoor‑grade yet refined to the eye—colourfast, resilient, and surprisingly soft. Rain, sun, salt air: the chair is made to handle it without fuss. And it shows.

Material Palette with Character

– Palissandro with Milk White textiles: a quietly elegant pairing that brings a modern, Mediterranean brightness to terraces or covered loggias.
– Accoya with Jungle: a deep, green tone that plays beautifully against stone and lush landscaping.
– Accoya with Milk White: airy, crisp, ideal for coastal settings and contemporary architecture.
– Accoya with Sunflower: a warm, optimistic hue that lifts darker woods and concrete patios alike.

Because the Itaca dining chair is part of a complete outdoor narrative, the colours echo the collection’s living pieces, allowing dining zones to read as an intentional extension of lounges and daybeds. The result: a cohesive outdoor room, not just a grouping of chairs and a table.

Design That Works, Day to Night

At a breakfast table, the Itaca dining chair feels light and uncomplicated. At dinner, under a wash of candlelight, its curved back looks almost sculpted—subtle, but there. Pair it with stone, teak, or powder‑coated dining tables; the profile is refined enough for contemporary settings and warm enough for more natural schemes. It’s a chair for families and hosts, for city terraces and countryside pergolas, for spaces where durability is nonnegotiable and design is non‑optional.

A Signature of the Itaca Collection

The Itaca dining chair carries the collection’s identity forward: linear yet soft, precise without being rigid. It’s a considered piece of outdoor furniture—one that understands daily use, weather, and the rhythm of long meals. And in the language of Talenti, that’s the point: elegance you can live with.
