About Ring Chair Loungestoel, Voetenbank
Ring Chair is een set loungemeubilair bestaande uit een stoel en een voetenbank. Het frame is gemaakt van Braziliaans perenhout, gevormd door numerieke besturingsbewerking en afgewerkt met handmatig polijstwerk. Roestvrijstalen buizen vormen ringvormige armleuningen, omwikkeld met dikke, donkergrijze hennepstof. De gebogen zitting en rugleuning volgen de vorm van het lichaam en ondersteunen een correcte zithouding. Pen-en-gatverbindingen en metalen verbindingsstukken maken snelle montage en demontage voor transport mogelijk. Het ontwerp combineert traditionele Chinese meubelvormen met de natuurlijke schoonheid van massief hout.
