De La Espada
Sela Dining Chair
De La Espada was founded by Fátima de la Espada and Luís de Oliveira, a husband-and-wife team from Madrid and Porto who opened their first shop in London and never stopped designing and building furniture themselves. Early collections drew on the Arts & Crafts tradition and the pared-back architecture of Tadao Ando and John Pawson — a lineage still visible in every mortise-and-tenon joint. Today the company designs, engineers and builds nearly everything in-house at its solar-powered workshop on Portugal’s Silver Coast, where around a hundred craftspeople combine advanced machinery with hand-finishing on solid American walnut, oak and ash.
The Sela dining chair, designed with Luca Nichetto, pairs a seat and backrest in dark tan saddle leather, also available in black or natural, with a cushion upholstered in Kvadrat’s Balboa fabric and a structure in Danish oiled walnut, ash or oak, also shown here in oxidised oak and white oiled ash. Leather and fabric are combined rather than choosing one or the other, giving the chair two different textures to rest against.

De La Espada furniture reflects a confident command of generations-old craft wisdom and research-led modern design. Contrary to the way the majority of products are made today, a single workshop on Portugal’s Silver Coast is the beating heart of every De La Espada piece. It is from one of Europe’s most significant centres of excellence in woodworking and upholstery that their furniture is sent directly to homes and public spaces all over the world. They have an in-house design studio, De La Espada Atelier, and also collaborate with nine leading international designers, as well as Portuguese artisans whose craft they highlight in their products. De La Espada represents true luxury: creativity rather than imitation; extensive research and development; traditional methods that are in scarce supply; a singular aesthetic point-of-view; and no compromise when it comes to materials or effort.
