It’s handmade by local artisans and in-house craftsmen using walnut and oak from forests managed by the Forest Stewardship Council.

“Bring the playground into the boardroom or dining room with the Swing Table. Snap your staff or dinner guests out of the doldrums; meetings or dinners will become a fun and inspiring experience. A Geo lampshade and the hanging chairs are suspended from the four-poster frame around the table top. This playful design will delight and inspire and it makes vacuuming a breeze!”
