Dining chair from Sibast Furniture

Piet Hein Dining Armchair | Seat Upholstery

ThePiet Hein Dining Armchair was first completed in 1968. The great cultural personality and furniture designer, Piet Hein, spent almost a decade completing the design for the chair, which was to be a companion to his iconic Superellipse table. The chair never made it to market, but in close collaboration with the Hein family, Sibast Furniture has now put this extremely elegant dining chair into production.

ThePiet Hein Dining Armchair stems directly from the Superellipse table. The famous ellipse shape, which in many ways testifies to Piet Hein's mathematical genius and scientific approach to harmonious design, has been slightly modified in this dining chair to fit human proportions. A slight sway in the backrest, gives the chair a great seating comfort, without provoking the iconic ellipse shape and an upholstered seat with luxurious fabrics and leathers, gives the chair an extra dimension of exclusivity. The soft textile of the seat, the organic wood of the backrest and the hard metal of the frame create the dynamic visual balance for which Piet Hein was renowned. Discreet armrests add an extra elegant dimension of comfort.

Piet Hein Chairs are available in a select range of fabrics and leathers from Sibast Furniture. In addition, it is possible to compose the frame, backrest and upholstered seat of your choice, if desired. Please contact us by phone or email for more information.
