Description
A siesta chair in a beautiful, rich chocolate brown, complete with an additional cushion in the headrest and armrests. The leather is soft and well-preserved, showing minor signs of wear and slight cracks in the leather surface in the seat area. The wooden frame is in very good condition. The siesta chair remains an icon of comfortable seating to this day.
Ingmar Relling designed the Siesta chair in the 1960s for the Norwegian manufacturer Westnofa, creating a design icon. Made of bent beechwood, the chairs exemplify minimalist design in its purest form. This timeless design remains popular and in high demand today. -
