Have a question?
Sculpted by Motion. Anchored by Grace.
What happens when industrial precision meets organic elegance?
The Snake Chair answers with a single sweeping line—its frame, crafted from a continuous coil of steel tubing, mimics the fluid grace of a serpent in motion.
Designed in 1932 by Poul Henningsen, this piece brings sculptural intention to everyday living.
Its spring-like construction doesn’t just look daring—it flexes gently with your body, delivering a subtle bounce that feels unexpectedly alive.
Paired with generously cushioned seating and ergonomic back support, the experience is equal parts art and comfort.
Whether it lives in your reading nook or gallery-inspired space, this is seating that commands a second look—every time.
2 Shades. Three Textures. One Vision, Infinitely Refined.
True design isn’t just what you see—it’s what you feel.
The Artemis Guardian Chair comes in two timeless tones: a rich walnut brown and a sleek charcoal black.
But the finish? That’s where the story gets personal. Choose from ultra-soft Napa leather, durable and easy-care microfiber, or the quietly luxurious texture of Italian full-grain hide.
Each combination offers a distinct mood—tailored for different lifestyles, interiors, and tactile preferences.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all seat. It’s a finely tuned expression of your taste, your texture, your space.
Poul Henningsen
Designer
Poul Henningsen (1894–1967) was a Danish architect and designer, most renowned for his work in lighting and furniture design. He is widely recognized for his innovative approach to design, particularly his focus on creating functional, yet aesthetically striking, objects that harmonized with modern living.
Henningsen trained as an architect and was deeply involved in the design community in Denmark. He is best known for his work with lighting, particularly his collaboration with the lighting company Louis Poulsen. Henningsen's designs often addressed both the technical and artistic aspects of lighting, blending form with function.
Henningsen believed that design should improve quality of life through both functionality and beauty. His work emphasized the interplay between light, space, and form. He sought to eliminate harsh, direct lighting and instead focused on creating soft, diffuse light that was easier on the eyes, which led to his innovative use of layered light sources.
Precision in Every Curve: The All-Steel Masterwork
Forged from a single coil of stainless steel using a 3D mold and multi-operator coordination, this chair frame is a triumph of structural control and industrial finesse.
Each curve is precisely replicated to ensure consistent spring tension and balanced motion. The entire process is executed on Italian-imported machinery—because precision isn't just a detail, it's the difference between ordinary and exceptional.
Crafted to Impress: Leather, Foam, and Fine Details
The seat is wrapped in premium Italian full-grain leather—soft to the touch, breathable, and built to last. Beneath it, sculpted 3D foam delivers contouring comfort with a natural shape that resists flattening.
And every stitch? Done with 0.3mm precision. This isn’t upholstery—it’s tailored craftsmanship for the design-conscious.
Beyond Convention: A Backrest That Supports and Simplifies
We broke the mold—literally—with a backrest design that wraps around the first spring arc for optimal lumbar support. The height is measured, not guessed.
Its structure is reinforced with three discreet points of hardware, creating a seamless, minimalist silhouette that’s both visually clean and structurally sound. Sometimes, what you remove is just as important as what you build in.
