FAQs
What is the primary inspiration for the Beetle chair design?
The design is an abstract homage to the characteristics of a beetle, reflected in its curvaceous shell and gently tapering legs.
Does the chair come with upholstery?

What are the available base finishes?

Is the shell material durable?

Can I use this chair outdoors?

How do I choose the right upholstery?

What are the dimensions of the chair?
Dimensions vary slightly by configuration, but the conic base offers a slender profile. Please refer to the product's technical specifications for exact measurements.
Troubleshooting
Chair wobbles after assembly
Ensure all bolts connecting the shell to the conic base are fully tightened. Check that the chair is on a level surface.
Scratches on the metallic base
For minor scratches, try a metal polish specifically designed for the base material (e.g., chrome). Avoid abrasive cleaning pads.
Shell feels less flexible than expected
The flex is subtle and designed for comfort, not extreme bending. Ensure the shell is correctly attached to the base. Ambient temperature can slightly affect material flexibility.
