| Modern Day Klismos Chair |
The Klismos Chair is an Ancient Greek chair that looks as if it were designed specifically for the comfort humans. The use of wood and not concrete or other heavy material at that time gives special meaning to this chair, such as warmth. Carving the curved legs and the curved back of the chair would have been very difficult during those times because wood isn't that easy to manipulate. Also, the way the actual seat was made looks as it were a sturdy net to hold humans. Today you can find the Klismos Chair in many locations. There are lots of replicas of the chair, and the chair is also featured in many paintings, drawings and different potteries all over the world.
