Get Comfortable. Embrace Luxury. Meet Miller. This lounge chair has a friendly yet graceful aesthetic. It is made of sumptuous leather that will only get more beautiful as it ages. It is also exceptionally comfortable, with plenty of lower back support. The frame and base are made of reflexive 18 mm steel, while a layer of wood under the seat provides “shock absorption.” For ultimate relaxation, pair the Miller Lounge chair with its companion Miller Ottoman.
Christoph Seyferth eschews the belief that good design must come from big egos. His products are humane and functional, designed for everyday use. Seyferth’s diverse background spans fine arts, carpentry, architecture, and interior design, as well as furniture design. He has done everything from build his own house to design eyewear for Adidas. Seyferth’s work has a certain timeless quality, referencing the integrity of thoughtful craftsmanship and celebrating the essence of pure materials like wood, leather, and steel.
better leather
The Miller is a proud example of traditional craftsmanship. A professional saddlemaker creates the seat from 4-mm South German leather of the highest quality. Tanned over the course of 8 to 12 weeks, the leather is then dyed with metal-free pigments to produce our black, cognac, and brown options. The natural option is not dyed, so it will darken with age—it is also squeakier when used than the dyed options. All leathers are finished with natural waxes and oils.
homage to the butterfly
The idea for Miller originated when Serener’s Christoph Seyferth was repairing a classic of French design: Pierre Paulin’s leather “butterfly” chair. Seyferth found Paulin’s chair “astonishingly very comfortable” and set out to create a modern update.
