Pendulum Chair by Peter Opsvik for Stokke, 1983

About the Item

Pendulum chair designed by Peter Opsvik for Stokke in 1983. The Pendulum's ergonomic design offers a comfortable seating experience, allowing for various postures by moving with the body's natural need for change. Its curved rail enables gentle forward and backward tilting, while the slim backrest encourages an open chest posture, allowing for diverse sitting styles, including sideways seating for extra support. In other words: dynamic sitting. A unique idea for a unique space. The chair has recently been reupholstered in high-quality leather, and the wooden structure has been fixed up as well. It is in excellent condition.
