About the Item
Lounge chair, fabric, fiberglass, Italy, 1970s
This exquisite armchair, crafted with a fiberglass base in Italy, embody the post-modern spirit of the 1970s. The frames are made from white fiberglass, a material greatly used during the era for its versatility and ability to inspire bold, unconventional shapes. The design is both bulky and geometric, featuring a robust, trapezoidal body that exudes a striking visual presence. A standout feature are the rounded armrests that are draped over the edges, giving the chair a soft, cushioned appearance despite its substantial form. The seat and backrest are heavily padded, providing comfort while maintaining a blocky, almost sculptural aesthetic. The turquoise-blue upholstery displays a bold, patterned textile with circular, almost mandala-like motifs, typical of the vibrant and experimental textile designs of the 1970s. The feet of this lounge chair are a distinctive design element, cleverly concealed beneath the fiberglass base and partially recessed so that only a small portion of each wooden ball is visible. Altogether, the chairs exude a dynamic, almost toy-like quality that will undoubtedly serve as striking elements in any interior.
Kindly note that the fabric is in used condition with signs of age and use, including wear marks and a hole. Reupholstery is possible before shipping by our experienced craftspeople in our own in-house restoration atelier. With high attention for the original, they make sure every piece retains its value and is ready for the many years to come. We kindly ask you to contact our design experts for further information about the endless possibilities our restoration and upholstery atelier has to offer. Of course, a locally organized reupholstery is possible as well.

1970s Vintage Mid Century Modern Hand Lounge Chair, in White-- One Piece
By Pedro Friedeberg
Located in Madison, WI
Excellent Prop piece, or a Living Room, studio or office POP!
This listing is for the White chair. We also have a Black chair, sold separately, pictured here.
The RMIC hand chair made its first appearance around the year 1970. The spectacular chair is made of plastic and shaped like a giant hand with its palm turned upward, while the fingers serve as a backrest.
Originally, the hand chair was designed in 1962 by Pedro Friedeberg, a then 24 years old surrealist artist. Friedeberg artistic sensibilities were decisively directed against everything conventional, and he was inspired by the Dadaistic practice of producing anti-art for art's sake.
This White Hand Chair features the cup holder.
