Vintage Design
An important and rare pair of chairs designed by Jim Warren and produced by Pearl Dot, England, they date from 1979. Very cleverly designed to reflect the whole human body, in its function and the positions the human body may pose in the practice of yoga, in its uniqueness in that no two humans are the same and also the two sides of man, light and dark.
The chair incorporates three symbolic forms as in Chinese philosophy, the square is the order and knowledge of man, as in the machines used to create the components of the chair. The circle is Chaos and Truth of Nature, represented here by the lumbar support that can be adjusted to suit people of varying size. The Triangle is the symbol of Heaven Earth and Man, this can be seen in the various positions the chair takes.
Both chairs can be used in either of the upright positions or can be put into the lounge chair position.
