Story
A Nordic reading of the film-set chair
The Director's Chair is a Nordic interpretation of the iconic chair from film sets. The design is credited to Skagerak Design, and the chair has a characteristic look with a universal appeal.
Teak, brass and canvas
The frame is made of 100% FSC-certified teak and every visible fitting is brass. The seat is canvas. Because the canvas is not weather-resistant, the chair is intended for indoor use and should stay indoors at night. The chair is foldable.
