Any ideas or caveats?


Is said chair designed to be hung from the ceiling in the first place? If
so, I'm sure the manufacturers would have done the calculations before they
started to sell it. Too risky to do otherwise? Could you contact them.


There's the usual sort of vague warning about using the right fixings. I
haven't attempted to contact the manufacturer though.
