About the Item

Lounge chair, fabric, beech, steel, lacquered laminated wood, Czech Republic, 1950s This chair embodies many of the defining characteristics of 1950s modern furniture design, particularly its smooth, flowing contours and sleek, minimalist frame. The most striking feature is its single, continuous seat shell that sweeps gracefully from the seat into the back. The curved form cradles the sitter, suggesting a relaxing lounge experience while simultaneously showcasing a light, airy profile when viewed from the side. The plush cushion on the back provides an extra layer of comfort but is kept visually discrete to maintain the uninterrupted line of the shell. Underneath, the tapered, outward-angled legs, executed in blonde wood and reinforced by steel rods, capture a dynamic movement. The interplay of warm wood, neutral brown, and a soft yellow hue combine to form a reserved and natural appearance. Kindly note that the piece is in good, used condition with signs of age and use.
