About the Item

The “Bumerang Chair” is a characteristic piece of furniture from the Polish People’s Republic (PRL) era. Its name comes from the distinctive shape of the backrest, resembling a boomerang. The chair was often made from wood or wood-like materials, featuring simple and minimalist lines, and it was commonly painted in walnut or brown colors. This iconic chair serves as an example of design from that period. The Bumerang Chair was a popular furniture item during the PRL era due to its simplicity, functionality, and affordable price. Its design reflected the minimalist trends of that time. The backrest of the chair indeed had a shape reminiscent of a boomerang, giving it a unique appearance. Despite being a relatively simple piece of furniture, the Bumerang Chair gained significant popularity and became a symbol of that era in Polish design. Thanks to its functionality it was widely used in various places such as homes, offices, schools, and public institutions. Today, the Bumerang Chair can be seen as a nostalgic element, harkening back to the aesthetics of the PRL years. Its distinctive design appeals to collectors and vintage enthusiasts who seek furniture and items from that era. About the fabric: A multi-coloured, mélange upholstery fabric inspired by Ireland's signature Donegal tweed style. Colourful accents on a uniform background are very fine – from a distance the fabric gives the impression of uniform, from close up you can see small weaves of silk. Granola visually resembles the Prato collection, but is more subtle and has a greater variety of colour. Its mélange weave makes it a perfect match for interiors inspired by the 1960s style. It can be used to renovate vintage furniture and produce contemporary models of chairs, armchairs and sofas. It comes in 16 colour variants: from more subdued earth colours to pastels. Composition: Recycled Cotton 31% Recycled wool 22% Acrylic 21% Polyester 16% Silk 10% Weight: 535 g/m2 Martindale: 70 000 Martindale cycles We can prepare this chair also in another wood and fabric color.
