Lounge chair in the style of Paul Tuttle, late 20th century, with a cantilevered frame of chrome-plated steel and chrome.

Amazing midcentury brown fabric and chromed steel chaise longue. This wonderful daybed is attributed to the American designer Paul Tuttle and was produced during the 1980s. This item is wonderful because of the structure of the chair, made of chromed steel and the tobacco brown fabric cover, made in one piece and adhering on the structure.
