The Butterfly Chair, originally designed in 1938 for an apartment building in Buenos Aires by architects Jorge Ferrari-Hardoy, Juan Kurchan and Antonio Bonet, is a landmark of iconic design. The chair is defined by a large sling that hangs from the highest points of a tubular frame, creating an inviting cocooned space that embraces you when seated. Cuero has created a unique Butterfly Chair made from hemp, a material that breathes in a way that can keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter, ideal for both indoor and outdoor seating.
Available in 3 natural colour tones, the Canvas Mariposa is a versatile modern lounge chair that has been created to offer superior comfort, whilst embodying the valued importance of the natural world in design.
Inspired by the classic Argentinian 'Butterfly Chair' design, Lars Kjerstadius went on to develop his own design of the product. After spending years perfecting and improving the comfort and style of the chair, Lars crafted the ultimate modern lounge chair, beautifully adapted for the 21st Century.
Cuero, a family run business (by Lars's son and partner), has now launched the chair along with a range of other luxury leather and sheepskin furniture and accessories, combining the powerful force of nature and design.
