Sling Soft Leather

This chair’s clean lines and lightness makes it a perfect fit for any interior space. This chair is a laid-back favourite.

Pairing the purity of simple tubular steel with the sensual warmth of natural hide, it has a sleek look and an air of functional elegance.

Each one is handmade with care by our craftsmen using beautifully coloured pliable leather that is soft to the touch. The chair is made of a double layer of leather and lined with South African shwe-shwe material for extra strength. The leather is available in ochre, metallic bronze, gold and silver and white (please contact us for other colours).

It comes with a soft leather bolster for additional comfort.

The beauty of leather is that each hide has natural markings and features, which means that each piece is unique, with its own personality.

Colour, engravings and patterns are added by hand, embracing the characteristics and individuality of the hide. There might also be slight colour variations. The craftmanship and skill of the artist’s hand therefore constitutes an inherent part of the making of your particular piece, a feature we celebrate as part of the creative process.

As you live with your product, the leather will evolve. With the correct care, the appearance of your newly-purchased piece will retain its beauty, developing its own character and patina.

We support products that are created by hand, demonstrating the unique skill of the artisan and support one-of-a-kind pieces, and variance in design due to the process of hand crafting. In a world of homogenized mass production, slower designed, handmade products require less energy than mass-produced items and often last longer, reducing the cycle of waste in our  “throw-away” culture.

The hanging mechanisms are supplied with the chair – in standard lengths, ready for installation.

The Sling chair can disassemble and splits in half for flat packing – great in economising packing and freight.
