Varier Variable Balans Ergonomic Kneeling Chair - Black/Natural

The Variable Balans kneeling chair, designed in Norwegian in 1979, is an instantly recognizable design icon that offers a brand new sitting experience. Its unique and sophisticated design gently tilts the pelvis forward, encouraging a natural upright posture and allowing the body to move and find its own balance.

The open construction of the Variable Balans is free of mechanical adjustment parts, making it a lightweight and easily movable chair that requires minimal cleaning efforts, adhering to the demands of a modern lifestyle. Its curved runners allow for gentle rocking motions, making it more ergonomic and comfortable than traditional office chairs.

When sitting on the Variable Balans, the user's weight is firmly placed on the forward-sloping seat, while one or both of the lower legs rest on, in front of, between, or beside the shin pads, allowing for varied sitting positions. This stimulates the user's core muscles, decreasing the negative effects of static sitting and improving posture.

The chair's simplicity is a testament to Scandinavian design, with the tilted seat and gently curved wood following the body's natural movement. The user's muscles are stimulated, and the chair encourages dynamic and active sitting positions, allowing the body to flow and find its own balance – just as nature intended.

All parts of the Variable Balans kneeling chair are manufactured in Europe, and the production process has been optimized to minimize waste. The chair is designed for the human body, with the movements it invites being the intuitive motions our bodies naturally want to follow.

Varier, the company behind the Variable Balans, believes that the next position is always the best, and they aim to invite people to move and make it an essential part of everyday life, even when sitting. The chair comes with a 10-year limited warranty against fabrication faults on wooden and polypropylene parts, and a 5-year guarantee against fabrication faults on mechanical parts.

The Variable Balans kneeling chair is the only original design created by Peter Opsvik in 1979, and it is now available with a free soft tape ($50 value) for floor protection, ensuring that users can avoid scratches on hard floors and protect their investment for longer.
