About the Item
Introducing an absolutely stunning "Siesta Chair" in rare 100% original, vintage condition.
The Siesta Chair has become one of the most recognizable and exalted Scandinavian furniture designs of the entire Mid-Century Modern Design era. The frame is constructed of bent and laminated beech wood harvested from sustainable forests and stained rosewood. The original leather, in a rich cognac color, adds warmth and character with it's light wear familiar to something utilized and loved.

Relling was passionate about creating furniture that was ergonomic and eco-friendly, ensuring that his pieces were constructed in way that could be repaired.
