About the Item

The iconic Model 6250 lounge chair, often nicknamed the “Blofeld chair” after its appearance in classic James Bond films, is a celebrated design by G-Plan from the late 1960s. This example has been professionally restored and reupholstered in a luxurious blue velvet, which enhances its bold sculptural form. Designed by Paul Conti for G-Plan in the 1960s. The chair sits on a distinctive swivel and rocking base with castors, allowing for effortless movement and comfort. Its enveloping silhouette, padded cushioning, and dynamic function combine to create a piece that is both stylish and highly practical. A hallmark of British mid-century modern design, the 6250 lounge chair became an instant classic thanks to its combination of futuristic lines and everyday usability. Today, it remains a sought-after design, admired by collectors and interior designers alike for its comfort, versatility, and unmistakable cinematic presence.
