Variable Monochrome kneeling chair, plum
Description
Varier’s Variable Monochrome kneeling chair is designed to bring movement and ergonomic comfort to your workspace – along with a bold splash of color. The forward-tilting seat encourages a naturally upright posture, helping to relieve pressure on the lower back and ease tension in the neck and shoulders. Upholstered in a recycled polyester fabric that matches the frame, the Variable Monochrome features curved wooden runners that allow gentle rocking and movement while seated.
Designed by Peter Opsvik, the Variable is the world’s first kneeling chair and a true pioneer in ergonomic seating. First introduced at the Copenhagen Furniture Fair in 1979, it remains one of Varier’s most popular products to this day. The colorful Variable Monochrome joined the collection in 2024. Lightweight, agile and easy to move around, the chair is ideal for both home and office use.
