Know before you buy
Designed by Peter Maly, the chair is a deliberate fusion of Bauhaus structural precision and Japanese minimalism. This combination results in a clean, sculptural silhouette that prioritizes both geometric balance and organic comfort.
Yes, the backrest is specifically engineered to offer a supportive, cradling feel. Because it is upholstered, it provides a softer, more forgiving contact point than a traditional wooden backrest, making it well-suited for extended periods of relaxation.
Beyond the aesthetic grain patterns, both woods are premium hardwoods known for their durability and longevity. Japanese Oak is generally lighter and offers a wider variety of stain finishes, while Walnut provides a richer, deeper tone that highlights the natural character of the wood.
Yes, the chair arrives fully assembled. You can place it directly into your space without the need for tools or complex setup.
