About the Item

The Siesta Chair, designed by Norwegian designer Ingmar Relling in 1965, is a quintessential example of Scandinavian modernism, celebrated for its minimalist aesthetic and exceptional comfort. Produced by Westnofa, this chair has become an iconic piece in mid-century furniture design. The Siesta Chair features a sleek, bentwood frame crafted from laminated beech, providing both strength and flexibility. Its suspended seat comprises durable canvas supports, offering elasticity and comfort, while plush leather or fabric cushions enhance the seating experience. The chair's ergonomic design includes a slight recline, promoting relaxation without compromising posture. This particular chair is an alternate example of the classic siesta design, boasting a larger size and additional built-in headrest. It is upholstered in a stunning deep oxblood leather, rich in tone and character. The canvas of the suspended seat is a beige tone contrasting wonderfully with the deep colour palette of the leather and frame.
