Bernard Chair by Jonas Lindvall

“We find rest in those we love, and we provide a resting place for those who love us”
Saint Bernard of Clairvaux (1091 – 1153) The Bernard chair marks the culmination of 4 years design and development. Handmade by a small group of cabinet makers in SmÃ¥land (Sweden), each piece requires 42 hours of intensive craftsmanship to perfect. Taking its name from the 12th century ecclesiastic, St Bernard of Clairvaux, the chair is Jonas Lindvall’s homage to traditional skills in an age when mass production techniques hold sway. It is a design without compromise. Each Bernard chair leaving the workshop carries an engraved plaque listing production information and designer authentication.
