LONALD Lounge Chair
An Authorial Study in Tectonic Silhouette, Parametric Joinery & Solid Wood Artistry
An Exploration of Wood, Rattan & Upholstered Comfort
The Lonald Lounge Chair by NICCHRIS combines solid wood craftsmanship with the natural charm of woven rattan.
Its wide wooden armrests, angled rear legs and slightly reclined rattan backrest create a relaxed, inviting silhouette. The open weave adds an airy feel, while the upholstered seat provides comfort for reading, lounging or simply unwinding.
Blending traditional rattan weaving with contemporary furniture design, Lonald is a distinctive wooden lounge chair for living rooms, reading corners and cosy spaces.
Made to order in Malaysia by NICCHRIS, this solid wood and rattan lounge chair is available in a selection of wood stains and upholstery fabrics.
Material Authenticity & Engineering Authority
Hand-Selected Structural Hardwood Billets
Milled exclusively from certified, kiln-dried structural solid hardwood billets selected individually for density and grain flow. Kiln-cured under calibrated schedules to neutralize internal tension, ensuring the chassis remains dead-flat without seasonal checks or warping.
Parametric Joinery & Mortise and Tenon Framework
Lonald’s core relies on high-tolerance internal mortise and tenon joinery calculated through parametric scripting. Hand-fitted timber tenons seat directly into machine-routed mortises with exacting friction fits, permanently eliminating frame racking, wobble, and squeaks.
Multi-Density Postural Cushioning Core
Features high-resilience, cold-cured foam cores enveloped in breathable Dacron batting. Delivers immediate surface comfort followed by firm, continuous lumbar support that prevents seat depression over years of daily enjoyment.
Hand-Rubbed Open-Pore Protective Sealants
Sealed by hand with an ultra-matte, low-sheen protective formulation. The breathable coating penetrates deep into the natural fibers to shield against spills while keeping the authentic timber grain open to the touch, developing a rich patina over time.
Architectural Spatial Versatility
Lonald is tailored for interior architects, spatial designers, and discerning homeowners seeking the bespoke rigor found in private design commissions. Whether curated as a solitary contemplation chair beside double-height structural glazing, paired across a monolithic stone hearth, or anchoring an executive office study, its low-profile silhouette maintains sweeping visual horizons throughout the interior. Every chair is custom made to commission in Malaysia, accommodating bespoke textile specifications ranging from structured bouclés and NICCHRIS selected synthetic leather.
Looking for cohesive interior curation? Pair Lonald alongside the low horizontal lines of the Mooi TV Cabinet or balance with the architectural volume of the Donald Sideboard.
