The inspiration for this series of six dining chairs came from the six wives of Henry VIII. The chairs, like the wives, are all formally linked but each has its own individual, recognisable personality - in this case expressed through variations of uphols
tery and finishing. The designs are a clever reference to a rich part of British history as perceived by the Spanish designer Jaime Hayon. The fame of the story of Henry VIII and the associations of opulence, culture and iconic visual references each play
ed a part in influencing Hayon's interpretation. The story of the Tudor Chair is a British one for a British company.
