Sunrise Chair and Ottoman, Small by Ekornes Stressless
The Sunrise Stressless Chair is another excellent recliner design from the people at Ekornes, the Norwegian furniture company that produces the Stressless Chair line. The Sunrise Stressless Chair has many of the features of its brothers and sisters, including the Glide system, the Plus system, and 360 degree rotation, but it's also distinctive and attractive in it's own right. The fine workmanship evidenced in the upholstery and the well-wrought base both call attention to the luxurious and elegant character of the chair. Organized on horizontal rather than vertical lines and design principles, the Sunrise Stressless Chair is an original in the Ekornes line. The rich padding that combines with the leather to produce that unmistakable Stressless feeling is "stretched" over the backing, rather than along the more up and down lines adopted by much of the rest of the series. The three things most essential to any Ekornes chair are comfort, support, and style. The Sunrise Stressless Chairs (they come in three different sizes to better accommodate various users) are first and foremost extremely comfortable. The first physical manifestation of comfort is in the materials of the chair. As soon as you sink into the deep, soft leather of the chair you'll know how much effort went into making this chair as relaxing and comfortable as possible. The richness of the material corresponds to the density of the design, as the ergonomic engineering within the chair conspires to keep your body perfectly balanced, easily and healthily reclined, and at all times with the full range of support and proper angle need for excellent comfort. As for support, the same structures within the chair that keep you comfortable also keep you healthy. The Plus system moves on it's own to insure that your lower back, neck and head are properly supported. The Glide system makes reclining easy and stress (and adjustment) free. When you sit in the Sunrise Stressless Chair, your body isn't just comfy; it's also healthily supported. Now, as for style. The Sunrise Stressless Chair is nearly unsurpassed among it'[s fellow chair families in the this regard. While of course aesthetic achievement is a largely subjective judgement, few would quibble with the fact of the Sunrise Stressless Chair's evident attractiveness. The simplicity of the upholstery is broken ony a few times with horizontal lines at the top of the chair. The seat pad is more dramatically curved at the edge than normal, producing a wave-like effect while at the same time beckoning users to sit. The overall effect is calming, dramatic enough to be noticed in a crowd but never loud or attention-seeking. The design is classic and contained, as is the engineering within. There isn't a chair anywhere on the market with the combination of looks, brains and comfort exhibited in every Stressless, and that goes especially for the Sunrise Stressless Chairs. Also available as loveseats and sofas, these are chairs perfect for any room, and just right in any home. The Sunrise Chair is available in three different sizes to accommodate a wide range of users. Shown here is the Sunrise Small Size, but also available is the Sunrise Medium and Sunrise Large. |
