Mini Boga Lounge Chair for Taaru in Teak

About the Item

A truly special chair. Designed by Mini Boga for Taaru in Delhi , India ca. 1970. This example with the rare high back in solid teak and with the original rope weaved seating. An incredibly comfortable and inviting chair. A low lounge with wide and deep seating. Mini Boga established her furniture brand Taaru in New Delhi at a time when there was little modern design in India. Her simple forms are solid and have a softness and grace similar to contemporaneous Brazilian design. Inspired by craft traditions, her designs take on a functionalist and minimalist approach. Condition is terrific with great natural colour, tone, and patina from honest use. Feel free to contact for additional images or information on this delightful chair.

    By Florence Knoll, Knoll
    Located in Waalwijk, NL
    Florence Knoll for Knoll International, lounge chair, model '51', teak, fabric, United States, 1955 This slipper chair model 51 is designed by Florence Knoll. The teak frame of the chair is sleek in form. The angled seat is placed upon the squared-off frame. Maximum seating comfort is ensured by the wide seat and tilted backrest. Florence Knoll (1917-) was trained as an architect and had a sense of style from a very young age. In 1936 she met Alvar Aalto and was trained by Marcel Breuer, Walter Gropius and Mies van der Rohe. This meant that although she was barely out of her teens, she was educated by the best of the European modernists. When she arrived in New York Knoll worked on interior projects (being the only female) which is how she came to know Hans Knoll. When Florence joined Knoll, the planning unit started. Florence also made sure that the designs where more 'American Modernist' instead of Scandinavian, When Hans Knoll died she...
