5 Star Review
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I purchased the classic boucle Womb Chair and Ottoman in crimson for my living room and absolutely love it! It's classic design and pop of color really add to the aesthetic in the room. Plus, it's incredibly comfortable, which doesn't hurt either!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This slightly smaller Womb chair fit wonderfully in our space (and fits average sized adults well), whereas the full size Womb would have been overpowering. The upholstery was true to samples, and the chair was delivered on time and without any flaws.

We love this chair!
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
It is super comfortable and beautiful. Adds character to the whole room. We decided not to get the ottoman just yet, but now that the chair is here, I feel like the chair needs it in other to be 100% complete. We'll get it soon.

Knoll Saarinen Medium Womb Chair
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
I purchased the Knoll Saarinen Medium Womb Chair in classic boucle crimson and I love the way the chair looks. It is a statement piece in the family room. It looks stunning and the size does not overwhelm the room. The only thing is it is not the most comfortable chair. Maybe it has to be broken in?????? Would buy it again in a hear beat, because it is like a piece of art.
