From Nikari’s 2012 collection ‘12 Designs for Nature,’ the December Lounge Chair combines locally sourced Finnish Ash and Oak with stunning leather upholstery. The result is an incredibly stripped-back yet sleek lounge chair, exuding earnest and sustainable intentions mixed with distinct, angular and purposeful lines.
For ultimate comfort, the chair can be purchased with a matching Ottoman, whilst a dining chair version is also included in the collection.
