We are delighted to offer readers this elegant hammock chair by British furniture designer Bill Brown. Solidly constructed in beech, the chair folds easily and is light to carry. You can transform it from an upright chair into a recliner and then a bed by simply shifting your body weight backwards or forwards. The cover, in Malabar's hand-woven Juku fabric, is backed with cotton canvas and can be easily removed for washing. Choose from terracotta/ aqua/ gold, yellow/ mid-blue/ cream, or sand/ black/beige. The generously sized frame is 84 cm (33 in) wide including handrests; fully extended, the chair is around 183 cm (72 in) long. It is your best investment. The hammock chair costs just $199, including carriage.
