Know before you buy
While the chair is designed as a sculptural statement piece, its ergonomic curved form provides a surprisingly supportive seat. However, because it is made of solid glass, it lacks the cushioning of traditional upholstered armchairs and is best suited for occasional seating or as a focal point in a room.
The Ghost Glass Chair is crafted from 12mm thick, high-quality monolithic glass, making it exceptionally strong and stable. It is engineered to support up to 280 pounds, ensuring it is a functional piece of furniture rather than just a decorative object.
No, the chair arrives fully assembled. Because it is constructed from a single, continuous piece of curved glass, there are no joints or hardware to put together.
To keep the glass clear and free of fingerprints, use a standard glass cleaner and a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch the surface over time.
The chair is designed for indoor use on flat, stable surfaces. While the glass itself is durable, we recommend using felt pads on the base to prevent any potential scratching between the glass and your flooring.
