It’s true, we don’t live in a fairytale, however, there’s no reason why we can’t feel like we’re kings of the world. Check out the Master’s Chair – a contemporary interpretation to the good old throne. This is the final result, combining three chair designs: the 7 Series, the Tulip Armchair, and the Eiffel Chair.

Don’t be mislead by the contemporary design, this is a very comfortable chair befitting a king.
