Brown Leather Gravity Balans Relax Armchair by Peter Opsvik for Stokke, 1980s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

The Gravity chair was designed by Peter Opsvik in 1983 for Stokke Varier, Norway.

This chair is an early production and features brown leather upholstery on a bentwood frame and has an adjustable headrest.

The chair was designed with the intention of accommodating both relaxation and productivity, allowing for postures ranging from kneeling to fully reclined, all in one single chair. Use it as a kneeling chair when leaning forward, lean back for an upright position, or recline all the way back until your legs are elevated above your heart. In this levitation-like position, the chair gently rocks in response to the rhythm of your breathing, allowing you to relax into weightlessness.
