HAY’s Bernard lounge chair pairs a sturdy solid wood frame with a slip-on cover in either durable leather or marine canvas. The union of two contrary elements gives the chair a distinctive, lively appearance. Designed by Shane Scheck, Bernard is a fresh and contemporary lounge chair for multiple environments. The relaxed yet upright design of the chair looks great by any coffee table as well as in the corner of the bedroom, and it can also be used in pairs or groups.

In 2021, HAY renewed the surface treatments of its wood furniture by replacing the paints and lacquers with more environmentally friendly, water-based alternatives. Please note that due to this, natural wood furniture now comes with only one lacquer option instead of the previous two: the new water-based lacquer is glossier than the matte lacquer previously used, but slightly more matte than HAY’s previous clear lacquer.
