Consumers seeking modern furniture pieces to add to their home need to look no further than the 'UFO' saucer chair designed by IT ONEOFF that converts the design of a rocking chair into the shape that mimics an alien aircraft. The chair rotates on its curved back rather than on a hinged mechanism, giving the sitter the ability to fully control the angle of the rotation to suit their preferences.
The 'UFO' rocking chair is a sleek and contemporary furniture piece made from lightweight carbon fibre material. Despite the seat's wide shape, the carbon fibre renders the chair lightweight and mobile to sway with the sitter's movements. The inside of the chair is lined with a dapper red leather to create a contrast between the black carbon fibre exterior. Despite the seat's rounded shape, it has an interior mechanism that stops the chair from flipping.
