Embroidery Chair
Johan Lindstén's Embroidery Chair for Cappellini frames a seasonal scene within its upholstered backrest.
Wool-thread cross-stitch depicts spring, summer, autumn or winter, each paired with a specific ash-wood finish. Bleached, red, walnut-stained and black frames complete the four compositions, making the chair's illustrated back a focal point as well as a seating surface.
