Bentwood Café Chair for Melbourne Hospitality Venues

The European Bentwood Chair No.18 is one of the most widely specified bentwood café chairs, trusted in restaurants, cafés, and hospitality venues throughout Melbourne.

Recognised for its timeless design and proven durability, the No.18 has remained a staple in commercial interiors for over a century. Its clean, all-timber construction reflects the configuration most commonly selected for high-use environments, offering a practical and low-maintenance seating solution without compromising on style.

Crafted from European beech timber, the chair is formed using traditional steam-bending techniques to create its signature curved backrest and lightweight frame. This method provides excellent strength while keeping the chair easy to move and handle in busy dining settings.

The gently curved backrest offers natural support, while the compact footprint allows for efficient space planning across cafés, restaurants, and bars. Its understated form integrates seamlessly into a wide range of interiors, from classic café fit-outs to contemporary hospitality spaces.

Widely recognised as the No.18 bentwood chair, this design continues to be a reliable and versatile choice for venues seeking a balance of heritage character and everyday commercial performance. It remains a popular option across Melbourne and is also specified in hospitality venues throughout Australia.
