Ring Chair is a set of leisure furniture composed of a chair and a footstool. The frame is made of Brazilian pear wood, shaped by numerical control machining and finished by hand polishing. Stainless steel tubes form ring shaped armrests, wrapped with thick dark gray hemp cloth. The curved seat and back follow the shape of the body and support a correct sitting posture. Tenon joints and metal connectors allow quick assembly and disassembly for transport. The design combines traditional Chinese furniture forms with the natural beauty of solid wood.
