The Magnum Chair by Erik Magnussen
For those who love Engelbrechts' Chairik chair but find the seating surface too small, there is now an alternative. In collaboration with Engelbrechts, the designer Erik Magnussen has enlarged the chair - and calls the new version Magnum. It is five centimetres deeper and five centimetres wider.

Like its little brother Chairik, it is a very comfortable stacking chair with the absolute finest veneer design. The veneer has been given a layer of matt, silky melamine that forms a strong surface and makes the chair extremely resistant to daily wear and tear.

The frame is available with runners or traditional 4 legs, which are simple steel structures with a minimal stacking height.

For users who want even more comfort than the larger seating surface provides, Magnum is available with armrests, two types of leather/fabric padding and seat - or inside upholstery.

The recommended starting price for the Magnum chair is 228,00 Euros per chair, excl. VAT.
