GEM Aluminum Rattan Dining Chair

Around that frame, the seat and back are woven in PE rattan using 105 Gem's mixed red-tone weaving pattern — the same blended-color technique used across the collection, which on a chair-sized piece shows up as a subtle depth in the weave rather than a flat single-color surface.

The detail that separates this chair from a typical rattan dining chair is the backrest cushion: instead of a thin pad strapped to the front of the backrest, the cushion wraps fully around the backrest structure, covering the front, sides, and top edge. Over a full dinner service, that construction is what keeps a guest's back from resting against bare woven rattan or a hard aluminum edge, and it's part of why this chair holds its shape and position after repeated use instead of the cushion sliding or the corners wearing thin first. The cushion fabric follows the same wood-and-red direction as the rest of the set, so a full run of chairs around a 105 Gem dining table reads as one considered piece of furniture rather than a table with generic seating added around it. It's built for restaurant and hotel terraces, resort breakfast and buffet seating, rooftop dining venues, and villa outdoor dining rooms — anywhere guests are expected to sit through a full meal rather than a quick coffee.

Resort operators use the chair around poolside dining clusters and evening al fresco setups, where the aluminum frame's rust resistance matters as much as its look, given the humidity and chlorine exposure those areas see daily. On a rooftop restaurant or bar terrace, the red rattan tone picks up warmth from evening lighting in a way flatter, single-color wicker doesn't, which is part of why it photographs well for venues that lean on ambiance to drive repeat bookings. And in private villa or boutique estate settings, the chair works equally well pulled up to a family-style dinner or styled loosely around an outdoor lounge table for a smaller gathering — flexible enough to not require a separate seating solution for every different occasion a property hosts.
