Details
A long cream oval with the channels running around it rather than across it: three concentric lines that follow the outline and turn at each end, the way a running track does. The seat is one soft, rounded slab with no visible frame at all.
Under it, two solid wooden drums. They are set well inboard, so the oval reads as floating past them at both ends, and they are turned rather than tapered — no feet, no plinth, just two cylinders taking the whole weight.
In cream, in three lengths: 120, 140 and 160 cm.

Care
Vacuum on a low setting with an upholstery head, following the channels rather than crossing them. Blot spills straight away with a clean, dry cloth, working from the outside in. Do not rub. Brush the pile back in one direction after cleaning, so the channels read evenly. Wipe the wooden drums with a barely damp cloth and dry them afterwards. The drums stand on a flat face. On a hard floor, felt discs under them keep them from marking it.
Warranty
Two years, in line with Swiss statutory warranty. Covered: faults in the drum legs, the inner frame and the upholstery seams. Not covered: normal wear, the foam softening with use, and fading in direct sunlight. Write to us through the contact form with your order number and a photo, and we will sort it out.
