Pair of PEL tubular chrome lounge armchairs, English 1930s
About the Item
A pair of fantastic 1930's tubular chrome PEL chairs, these have been refreshed for today with new beautiful wool bouclé upholstery.
Practical Equipment Ltd, known later simply as PEL, were the leading manufacturers of modernist tubular steel furniture in Britain. Established in Oldbury, near Birmingham the company was formed in 1931 by parent company Tube Investments, who were seeking to develop new markets and hoped to emulate the success of Thonet in producing tubular steel furniture. Critically acclaimed projects which featured PEL furniture in the 1930s included the BBC’s Broadcasting House, Wells Coates’ luxury flats at Embassy Court in Brighton, and the De Le Warr Pavilion in Bexhill-on-Sea.
