Product Information
Description
A design that has an oak frame which cradles the body of the chair. The form of the chair itself is notable for having one side partially open, with the left arm low enough to become somewhere a leg or knee would rest. There are elegant curves throughout the design, all facing inwards, emphasising a sense of privacy and comfort. It is a simple design of good proportion, one that is responsive to human scale and gesture.
