A few years ago we found a chair which provides a new definition of ‘having a good seat’
Created by Ryan McNeish, the Saddle chair was a unique accent chair for the home inspired by a traditional horse riding saddle, complete with stirrups
Ryan's inspiration for the chair drew from his childhood growing up in the Scottish countryside, where "The equestrian memories were the inspiration behind my design - I wanted to make an extraordinary statement chair that fuses comfort, individuality and style.
The riding saddle is a recognisable and functional piece of sporting equipment and I wanted to see it in an entirely different form. The quilted leather finish is drawn from the quilted fabric placed under the saddle when riding, while the removable metal stirrups which hang from each arm create a contrast between the cool shine of the steel and the warmth of the soft leather"
No longer available from its original manufacturer, we've found one now available here in Australia at Coco Living and it looks just the job for relaxing at the end of a hard day in the real saddle
