Nalu Dining Armchair

Design

The Nalu Dining Armchair by Talenti carries the calm of a wave into the dining setting. Designed by Ludovica Serafini and Roberto Palomba, its soft, continuous lines read as one gesture. The integrated armrests rise from the seat in a smooth sweep, giving the chair a composed presence without feeling stiff.

Proportions are deliberate. Curves temper the geometry, so it looks light yet grounded. Nothing shouts. It simply sits with quiet confidence around the table and elevates the overall mood.

Materials & Build

A painted aluminum frame keeps the profile clean and modern while standing up to outdoor use. The structure is engineered for stability and precise alignment, so edges meet neatly and the form stays true. Fabric cushions complete the seat, adding a tactile counterpoint to the metal. Four refined colorways—red barrè, graphite grey barrè, blue-green barrè, and ivory-beige barrè—make it easy to tune the chair to the setting without overcomplicating the palette.

Comfort

The Nalu Dining Armchair supports an easy posture for long meals and longer conversations. The ergonomic curve of the back invites a natural lean, while the arms land at a comfortable height for resting the forearms. The seat sits at approximately 18.5 inches high, with a cushion about 3.5 inches thick to soften contact without feeling bulky. It’s the kind of comfort that disappears into the experience—there when needed, never in the way.

Placement & Lifestyle

Made for outdoor dining, it works just as well on a sunlit terrace as it does in a private courtyard or a hospitality patio. The design blends easily with contemporary tables and pared-back architecture. And it holds its own against lush planting and natural textures. For planning, the chair measures roughly 24.4 inches wide, 25.6 inches deep, and 32.3 inches high, with armrests at about 25.2 inches. Weight is about 24.3 pounds, so it moves when it needs to but feels substantial in place.

It is not stackable, which preserves the integrity of the sculpted form. Packaging is one piece per box, keeping setup straightforward. For those building a cohesive setting, the Nalu language scales nicely across multiple seats without visual clutter.

Longevity

Durability is built into the frame and finish, making the chair well suited to life outdoors. A tailored cover is available to keep it looking fresh between seasons. With regular care and the right protection, the Talenti Nalu Dining Armchair stays ready for daily use and special occasions alike—year after year.
