Description
The Cattelan Italia Magda ML Barré Dining Chair is the metal-legged counterpart to the Magda Barré, carrying the same defining Barré vertical quilting onto a slender contemporary metal frame. The ML construction creates a lighter, more architectural profile while retaining the collection’s softly padded, enveloping backrest. Available as Version A, the armless dining chair, or Version B, the dining armchair with integrated metal armrests, Magda ML Barré is offered in six metal frame finishes and 67 upholstery finishes across Synthetic Leather, Soft Leather, and Glove Soft Leather. Both versions measure 53 cm wide × 59 cm deep × 81 cm high, with Version B adding 62 cm-high armrests.
Key Features
- Barré Vertical Quilting: Parallel, equidistant stitching channels run across the full height of the upholstered backrest, creating the collection’s distinctive tailored character.
- ML Metal Frame: The slender metal-leg structure gives Magda ML Barré a lighter, more graphic and architectural appearance than the ashwood-frame version.
- Two Versions: Choose Version A, the compact armless dining chair, or Version B, the coordinating dining armchair with integrated metal armrests.
- Six Metal Finishes: Titanium Embossed, Bronze Embossed, Pearl Embossed, Graphite Embossed, Black Embossed, and Chrome.
- Three Upholstery Categories: Available in 18 Synthetic Leathers, 36 Soft Leathers, or 13 Glove Soft Leathers.
- 67 Upholstery Finishes: A broad palette supports detailed coordination with the dining table and wider interior scheme.
- Enveloping Padded Backrest: The softly shaped upholstered shell provides supportive comfort for extended dining and conversation.
- Compact Dining Footprint: At 53 cm wide × 59 cm deep with a 48 cm seat height, both versions are proportioned for standard dining tables and multi-chair arrangements.
- Version B Arm Height: The armchair version adds integrated metal armrests at 62 cm high.
- Made in Italy: Premium materials and expert detailing throughout, with a 5-year manufacturer warranty included.

Materials & Construction
Barré-Quilted Backrest
The softly padded backrest is fully upholstered in the selected material, with precise parallel stitching channels running from top to base. The tailored upholstery creates a deliberate contrast with the graphic metal frame.
Padded Upholstered Seat
The seat and back are constructed from birch and poplar plywood with variable-density polyurethane foam padding, then upholstered in the selected Synthetic Leather, Soft Leather, or Glove Soft Leather finish.
Dimensions
Both versions share identical width, depth, height, and seat height. Version B adds an arm height of 62 cm. All dimensions are consistent across frame finishes and upholstery combinations.
