Easy Chair

Easy chair designed by James Ryan and produced in collaboration with Soane Britain. The rattan seat and back were hand woven in the SOANE rattan weaving workshop in Leicester. The end of the arm support has a hand gouged texture to echo the linear texture of the rattan. This chair incorporates a couple of innovative technical features described by James Ryan here: “The arm and back leg component is laminated and is made up of individual layers of oak which are tapered over their length so as to allow a thinner and elegant section size where possible and produce a thicker component where additional strength is required. The side rail and back support joint also employs a further innovative technique whereby I form the interlocking finger joint as part of the laminating process used to create the side and back rail component.”

The chair is 78 cm wide, 80 cm deep and 80 cm high.
