Revive: 100% Recycled polyester - Varier's entry Level Fabric. Hard wearing and Vegan but not as soft on the skin as other options. If you wear shorts or skirts in summer we suggest an upgrade to something softer like Forest Nap, Divina or Dinamica.

Re-Wool: Crafted using 45% recycled wool, Re-wool is a rich upholstery textile with a sustainable profile. The textile is partly made by reusing scraps from Kvadrat’s yarn spinners in the UK.

Fiord: A versatile 92% Wool upholstery textile with a subtle three-dimensional look. The construction of Fiord combines a mélange yarn with a unicoloured yarn that creates pearl-like dots that play across the textile’s surface.

Melange Nap: Extremely soft yet durable, Melange Nap appears to be brushed. It is 97% Wool constructed with a unicoloured and a melange yarn, which creates a graphic pattern of tiny dots that play across its surface.

Vidar 3: The 94% Wool gentle satin surface finish of the weave contrasts with the deep shadowy tones in the depths, giving a multifaceted richness to the intense colours in the range.

Divina: A 100% Wool full-cloth product, very similar to the properties of felt.

Divina Melange 3: A vibrant piece-dyed 100% wool upholstery textile reminiscent of felt. Cheerfully simple, it comes in a fresh, versatile palette. Compact, comfortable and extremely smooth! 

Hallingdal 65: Made of 70% wool and 30% viscose, which complement each other well: the wool provides excellent durability and flexibility, whilst the viscose adds brilliance and depth to the colour. 

Dinamica: The most popular choice in our stores. Hard wearing, hypo-allergenic, smooth, eco friendly, easy to clean and luxurious Vegan polyester-blend. Ideal for everyday & summer use; read more about this amazing fabric HERE

Noir (Semi Aniline): Noir is a versatile leather boasting a smooth surface texture and a matt look with a subtle shine. As a Semi-aniline, full-grain leather, the natural markings are visible, adding authenticity and originality.

Warranty: 10 years on wood - 2 years on fabrics (when registered with Varier)

Size Boxed: 56 x 9 x 74
Size Assembled: h:51 w:52 d:72cm (seat h:50cm)

Variable is made from top quality beech ply wood from European forests. The ply wood is treated through an iterative molding process where several veneer layers are combined and glued. Through the application of combined heat and pressure, the layers are given their characteristic shape, making our Variable stand out from the crowd. All wooden parts are flexible and strong, ensuring a sitting experience that is never static. For a beautiful finish, our ply wood is covered with ash top veneer, manually sanded and coated with water-based, non-toxic lacquers.

Assembly Required: Item is shipped boxed, for self-assembly

Need a backrest?

Head over to check out the Variable Plus, explore the ultimate kneeling chair: the Thatsit, or take a look at our all time favourite chair, the Actulum.

Best-Selling Kneeling Chair

This offers almost perfect design and function. The Variable's outstanding qualities are only exceeded by those of the Actulum or Thatsit, but the Variable wins on price so it's our best-selling kneeling chair. It fits anyone from 7 years upwards. All chairs come with a 7-year warranty.

We have thousands of clients who use it for all day office work. Worried about sitting all day without a backrest? Simply add one above or take a look at our all time favourite chair, the Actulum. The runners allow the body's movements to totally control the chair. It can be used just about anywhere, as it's small, strong and very easy to handle.

Parent Tip: it's a great homework chair ... keeps energy levels high.

Have used one of these for 27 years and it is the very best piece of furniture for the office environment I have ever used. Particularly if you have any back issues. Was recommended initially by my physiotherapists after a spinal disk issue. Thoroughly recommend to anyone. This was a second chair after donating mine to my friend who is also now a fan.
