Description from the seller
An absolute masterpiece of Scandinavian design and ergonomics: the famous Variable Balans kneeling chair, designed by the legendary designer Peter Opsvik for the prestigious Norwegian brand Variér.
Introduced for the first time in 1979, this chair revolutionized the concept of seating.
