FRIGATE swivel chair with castors

Product information

The FRIGATE family is considered as a strong design idiom which shows that responsible production and aesthetics can go hand in hand without any compromise in quality.

The chair’s shell consists of two components: the backrest is made with the aid of 3D-Veneer technology, while the seat pan is produced through a conventional moulded plywood process. The backrest, curved in all dimensions, provides ideal support for the waist, along with its upper part and seat pan where the edges are bent in the opposite direction of the body in order to avoid cutting into the back and the thighs. The combination of old and new technologies enables us to offer optimal seating comfort as other seats made entirely with 3D-Veneer, while making it available for a much wider audience.

FRIGATE can be customized with a broad range of material and leg combinations according to personal needs – literally a natural choice to brighten up intimate spaces or grand halls with the inviting feel of wood.
