Real Leather · Contract Grade Quality
Real top-grain leather over a steel-reinforced frame, rated for commercial use. Five models, four leather colorways — available by the container or pick up single sets from our local stock.
Genuine leather where hands and bodies touch — not bonded vinyl that cracks and peels in year two.
Built to the durability standard used for restaurants and hotels, and sized for American dining rooms — not the narrower proportions most imports arrive in.
Beige, Light Grey, Medium Grey and Mocha in stock across the line — plus 16 more leathers available to special order.
Take a full container (roughly 280 chairs, mix up to four colors or models) for the lowest landed cost, or start with a small order from our local stock — the profit per chair stays strong either way.
The Collection
These are chairs of substance — every model below is the same build quality: real leather, contract-grade quality frame. Choose on silhouette, not on how long it will last.
The tailored high-back
A tall, softly channeled back that gives the seat real presence at the table, finished with a clean waterfall seat edge on slim blackened metal legs. The most upholstered-looking chair in the line — and the easiest upsell in a formal dining room.
The one that reads custom
A high, softly channeled back on a sculpted solid-wood base. The tailoring and stitch detail make this the model clients assume was made to order.
The everyday classic
A generous, comfortable seat with a gently curved back on blackened metal legs. The safest bet in the line and the one that moves fastest at retail.
The clean-lined workhorse
A crisp, squared silhouette on slim tapered metal legs. The easiest chair in the line to place — it disappears into a modern room and holds up under daily service.
The sculptural statement
A curved wraparound back with an open waist, fully wrapped in leather down to the legs. Architectural from every angle — strong in a dining room or a lobby.
Every model, every color, ready to ship. Mix freely across a single order.
Special Order
Beyond the four stocked colors, the entire line can be produced in any of the leathers below — same real top-grain hide, same contract-grade quality build.
Special-order lead times and container options are quoted per order. Talk to your Regional Manager for details.
Why Contract Grade Quality Matters
Bonded and PU-coated seating looks identical on day one, then cracks along the seat front and peels at the edges. Real top-grain leather softens and darkens instead — it looks better used than new.
Contract grade quality means the frame and joinery are built for the abuse of a restaurant floor: constant sitting, dragging, and cleaning. In a residential dining room, that abuse never comes.
Because it is genuinely commercial-grade leather, it holds its price on the floor instead of being discounted down to fabric and faux-leather levels — so the margin you write on the tag is the margin you bank. And it does not come back later as a warranty claim eating into it.
The Designer
Founder & Head of Design
The company is named after him. That was the point.
Albini Divani was born in northern Italy nearly fifty years ago, into a family where furniture wasn't a trade — it was the family language. His father was a carpenter. So was his grandfather, and his great-grandfather before him. Albini learned to sand before he learned to write, and he measured his childhood not in birthdays but in the chairs that left his father's workshop.
While other boys pinned footballers to their bedroom walls, Albini pinned drawings of chairs. He studied design, then did what designers almost never do: he went to the factory floor and stayed there for years, learning how furniture is actually made — and what it honestly costs. Three obsessions took hold early and never let go: design, value, and manufacturing. He has spent his life refusing to choose between them.
“Anyone can make a beautiful chair for a fortune,” he says. “And anyone can make a cheap chair that fails. The whole craft is a beautiful chair, honestly built, at a price that makes sense. That is the hardest thing in furniture — and the only thing worth doing.”
Every chair in this collection is drawn by his hand and built to his family's oldest rule: make it as if your name is on it. His is.
