2 years agoThe Best Safari Chairs for Your Inner Adventurer
Born from both adventure and practicality, the safari chair has transcended its 18th-century roots. Originally designed to be lugged around the great outdoors-as the name implies, these lightweight, collapsible chairs were intended as safari seating-the rugged, military-inspired seating has taken on more of a polished reputation today. Eventually, the look of the safari chair-along with its brethren, the hunting chair-evolved as various designers added their own creative twists to the original, made by Kaare Klint, like Erik Wørts' lounge-ready take on the genre in the '60s.
