Keilhauer introduces Sguig Sled, a well-proportioned sled-base chair, designed with a scrupulous attention to detail. Sguig Sled’s form enables it to function as a side or guest chair in reception, conference or meeting room applications. Sguig Sled’s tubular steel frame curves gracefully, beginning at the base and up through the arms, connecting seamlessly to the chair back. There is no break in the lines between the base, arms or backrest. The steel frame is finished in chrome, or black powder coat, to complement any décor.

Vividly colored continuous and intermittent stripes are positioned at random intervals, creating a formal yet playful effect. Constructed of 100 percent wool, the textiles were designed at an upholstery weight and meet all contract performance requirements.
