Story
A study in comfort
Claesson Koivisto Rune studied the lines and proportions of this chair with care, in an elegant synthesis of aesthetics and ergonomics aimed at the ultimate comfort.
Removable cover, own personality
Because the cover comes off, the chair works in many decor contexts while keeping its special personality. The upholstery range runs to 31 fabrics and 6 leathers, over a base in one of two finishes.
