I’m pretty sure swinging is still a thrill no matter what your age is and it’s even better when you find one that’s not kiddie-size. Italian designer Francesco Rota has you covered with this squeal-inducing basket swing called Adagio for Paola Lenti.

Made for indoor or outdoor use, the basket is built with a stainless steel frame that’s covered in hand-woven, brightly colored rope cord. The cushion is covered in an outdoor fabric that’s removable.

So go find a tree (or an indoor beam) to hang this swing from for a little bit of childhood nostalgia and swing to heart’s content!

These are really neat! Reminds me of the swings at summer carnivals w/o the metal sliding bar to hold you in. Wish I had trees to hold these up
