“Sitting on the floor in Japanese houses is a special experience. No chair, more like in nature, with the refined simplicity – zen. The working name for the chair, I longed for was zazen – sitting meditation. A perfect seat angle on a beautiful wooden frame, a webbing flax wearing seat cushion of hästsvanstagel and back cushion of the waterfowl feathers, both in the case of naturally tanned Tärnsjö leather. Ascetic in his expression, but comfortable in their sense. It does not sit in a chair without the room, which in mid-air. placing two next to each other is especially beautiful. Many of Norrgavel furniture have generic names, but what is this? More than a chair, but Armchair is too stopped … so we took the English to help and it was Easy chair. “
