Why choose Nychair X?

  • 1.Foldable

    The chair can be easily folded into a thickness of as little as 15-22 cm, which can still stand on its own and can be stored away into a narrow space. Folded chair can also be carried more easily, and with a weight of just 6-6.5 kg, it can be handled with ease by most users.

  • 2. Comfortable

    The angles and materials of each seat, armrest, and backrest are carefully crafted to support the body. The fabric adjusts itself to the shape and weight of the user's body, embracing it gently. The soft seat surface and smooth wooden armrests are pleasant to touch.

  • 3. Carefully made in Japan

    Nychair X may be built with simple parts, but they are crafted with precision that can only be achieved with advanced technologies. The manufacturing processes are run in Japan.

Designed by

Takeshi Nii

Takeshi Nii (1920–2007) was a Japanese designer who devoted his life to mastering folding furniture. A third-generation owner of a company that produced Kendo equipment in Tokushima Prefecture, Nii designed his first Nychair X lounge chair in 1970. The Nychair X has received several prestigious design awards over the years and is included in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Users' voices

“I liked that it has a high back, and I can rest my head against it. I do not feel tired or strained even when seating over a long period of time. I also like that the chair folds and is very compact, using very little space when stored.”

“It firmly wraps around my body and allows me to relax fully. Because it can be folded, it can be easily carried around to where I want to use it: the living room, the porch, or to the 2nd floor balcony, which adds to its appeal.”

“I take it camping with me. It folds, can be used right after unfolding, and does not require any complicated assembly. Relaxing in Nychair X, surrounded by nature, I feel like I can enjoy the ultimate luxury.”

“You can fold it up and unfold it wherever you like. It's compact, lightweight, and without anything unnecessary. It's the perfect chair for relaxing and reading a book. It also has a beautiful presence.”

“It is our favourite chair in the house, ever since I was pregnant until now, when the baby is with us. It is beautiful, comfortable and easy to care for. I never get bored of looking at the fabric, which looks like a sun is shining through the lattice door.”
