Variable Balans Kneeling Chair

The original kneeling chair.  Variableʼs unique design and functionality makes it an icon that is instantly recognisable. Throughout its 40 years of history, the gentle tilting motion and open angle sitting posture has remained constant. The sophisticated kneeling design provides optimal comfort while gently switching between kneeling and the more traditional posture. The Variable fits in nicely with all interiors, especially accompanied with a desk. Peter Opsvik designer.

Encourages a neutral spine: The seat gently tilts the pelvis forward and encourages an upright spine.

Strengthens core muscles: Abdomen and back muscles engage to keep the spine upright, which strengthens core muscles and prevents back and shoulder tension.

Improves circulation: The angle between the upper and lower body increases, which greatly improves circulation.

Materials

Variable is made from top quality beech ply wood from European forests. The ply wood is treated through an iterative molding process where several veneer layers are combined and glued. Through the application of combined heat and pressure, the layers are given their characteristic shape, making our Variable stand out from the crowd. All wooden parts are flexible and strong, ensuring a sitting experience that is never static. For a beautiful finish, our ply wood is covered with ash top veneer, manually sanded and coated with water-based, non-toxic lacquers.
