Q. Are butterfly chairs comfortable?

Answer

The Butterfly chair is among the most comfortable chairs available, despite its very straightforward design, which consists of a "sling" of fabric that is draped over a steel frame that is kept to a minimum. They are fun for the whole family, but children in particular like the challenge of climbing into the frame, which is shaped like a hammock. Seen first in the 19th century, in later years, Artek Pascee put it into production, and in the United States, Knoll was the company that produced it in the most extensive amounts possible. The butterfly chair seems to have been a common sight in homes across the country during the 1950s. It was so popular that it went on to become a symbol of that era. Its straightforward material processing and modest capital requirements contributed to its meteoric rise in popularity.
