This 1960s oak lounge chair, originating from the Netherlands, mirrors typical Dutch mid-century furniture - embodying simplicity and functionality. Mid-century modern furniture was mainly designed with the urban home in mind, and Dutch furniture makers aspired to affect lives with good functional design. This chair has a stunning wooden oak frame, paired with fully upholstered cushions in a premium striped fabric. With a timeless and sturdy design, it is especially successful at balancing modernity and comfort. The composition plays with geometry, combining both the straight and curved lines of the frame with evenly-spaced, straight wooden slats, spherical finials, and legs that are tapered towards the bottom. The details draw attention to the beautiful oak wood colour and grain, whilst the choice of material offers a strong frame and a smooth finish. Oak was a popular material for furniture design in Europe during the mid-century era for several reasons; it is a hardwood that is known for its durability, making it a practical choice for furniture that is designed to last. Additionally, oak has a distinctive and attractive grain pattern that adds visual interest to furniture pieces. The cushions fit snugly within the chair, resting on all sides of the inner frame, providing an extremely comfortable seating experience. The tufting on the upholstery also features buttons that accentuate the design of the luxurious fabric choice. This lounge chair is representative of mid-century craftsmanship from the Netherlands - whilst also being reminiscent of the Eric Merthen “Amiral” chair...
