The Leather Sling Chair from Parachute is made from a solid oak frame with walnut detail on the front joints. The sling back and seat are made from vegetable-tanned leather with clean lines, excellent ergonomics, and thoughtful construction throughout. Parachute is known for taking a softer approach to chairs and its customers value the company’s sustainable materials, modern aesthetics, and comfortable results.
The leather of this sling chair is joined by the slats of the frame. When a person sits down, the design makes it possible for the leather to stretch and conform to the shape of the user. The dowel through the stitching ensures that there will be no release of the threads despite everyday wear and tear. Cleaning it is as simple as wiping it down with mild dish soap and water. It will only need real maintenance in the case of serious damage, such as large scratches or water marks. Perfectly natural in a bedroom or living room, it’s an artful addition to any home.
Parachute is committed to everyday livability, which for their team, means eschewing the use of performance fabrics that may be popular for home use today but ultimately are harmful to the environment. The low-slung design, sustainably sourced oak and walnut and included nylon furniture glides were all responsibly chosen and put together with care in Vietnam. This chair is 33” wide, 33” deep, and 30” high, and the seat is 13” high. The chair weighs 55 pounds.
