The Concept

Every designer chair has a story and the Beetle is no different. GamFratesi found their muse in the structure of the aesthetic and anatomy of the beetle. The designer chair’s curved seat resembles a beetle’s hard exterior. Its slim legs, in a similar fashion, echoes the delicate but functional legs of the insect.

 

In view of its success, the Beetle Chair has now been reimagined into several other variants. The complete Beetle Chair collection now features the dining chair, a lounge chair, a wooden base variant, a swivel chair and a barstool. All beetles can also be upholstered. You can choose from one of the three styles: (1) Fully upholstered, (2) Upholstered seat and (3) Upholstered Front.
