Details
Details
- Woven Rope Seat and Back: Closely set runs of thick, braided rope travel in one field from the top of the back down across the seat, so the rope itself is what you sit on.
- Rope-Wrapped Frame: The steel frame around the seat and back is wrapped in tight coils of the same rope, so its outline reads as a soft white edge with no metal showing.
- Low, Reclined Seat: The front edge of the seat sits 15.7" (40 cm) from the floor, and the seat dips gently toward a reclined back for an easy, lounging position.
- Black Steel Base: Four slim, splayed steel legs in a black finish are tied together low down by an H-shaped stretcher: one along each side and one across the middle.
- Light and Ready to Use: It weighs 13 lb (5.9 kg), is rated for up to 300 lb (136 kg) and needs no assembly.

The story
A low rope chair for slow mornings and long reads.
The Gustave sits you low and leaning back, with the front of the seat 15.7 inches from the floor and a tall back that tilts at an easy angle. It suits a book by the window, a coffee before the day begins or an hour of conversation beside the sofa.
Its character comes from the rope. Thick, braided runs in chalk white form the whole seat and back, held by a few thin cross-cords and wrapped around a slim steel frame, and four black steel legs keep it light on the floor. At 13 lb, it moves easily from one corner to another.
The design
Three details that make the Gustave.
The Gustave is one simple idea, a rope shell on a slim steel base, carried through with care. These three details give it its character.
Braided Rope, Coiled Edges
Up close, each run is a thick, round rope with a fine braided surface. On the seat, thin cross-cords hold the runs in staggered rows of short ridges, and the front edge is wrapped in tight coils of the same chalk-white rope.
One Shell on a Steel H
The seat and back are one rope shell on a wrapped steel frame, held across the back by three thin cross-cords. Below it, four slim black steel legs splay outward, joined by one stretcher along each side and one across the middle.
Low and Easy to Move
With its seat 15.7 inches high at the front and a relaxed, reclined back, the Gustave suits a reading corner, a bedroom or a spot beside the sofa. At 13 lb it is easy to carry from room to room.

Dimensions
Will it fit?
Planning tip. Allow a footprint of about 28.35" × 28.74" (72 × 73 cm), plus roughly 30" (75 cm) of clear floor in front. The seat is low, 15.7" (40 cm) at the front edge, so a low side table keeps a cup within easy reach. A pair with a small table between them needs about 6 ft (1.8 m) of wall. The box measures 32.7" x 33.9" x 34.3" (83 x 86 x 87 cm), so check doorways first.
