Tripod Chair, Black Italian Leather/Zebrawood

Tripod Plywood Mid-Century Modern Chair

Featuring a smiling seat and three-legged tripod design, this chair is a high-quality reproduction of the original 1963 Hans Wegner design. The chair's arching curves and exaggerated seat lines have earned it nicknames such as wing and smile chair.

Making the Icon

Kardiel’s reproduction stays true to the original 1963 mid-century modern design. This reproduction includes quality features designed for long-lasting service and great design. The plywood is molded to the exact curvature and dimensions, creating soft contours that invite relaxation.

The back and seat tilt angle places the sitter in the unique position originally intended. This high-quality reproduction features quality construction points and maintains good posture and solid form at a fraction of the original cost.

Genuine Italian Leather

High-grade Italian leather covers all surfaces of the Tripod Plywood chair.

Italian leather offers a higher grade than standard leather, with realistic leather graining and a softer surface for a more comfortable lounging experience.
