These sheepskin chairs by Warm Nordic are inspired by one of the most renowned furniture designers of the 20th century — Hans Olsen. By obtaining permission from the legacy family, the contemporary firm is able to celebrate the icon's aesthetic and provide consumers access to comfort-focused pieces that are ideal for the winter months.
The sheepskin chair bears the name of 'Fried Egg.' The title is tied to the aerial appearance of the furniture. That is, when viewed from above, the shape of the piece reminds one of a fried egg in a pan.
Warm Nordic makes the sheepskin chairs available in three colorways — including Scandinavian grey, Moonlight white, and a faceted patchwork. This allows for the work to accommodate a number of interior designs.
