Pair Mid-Century Greenbelt Lounge Chairs by Ralph Rapson for Knoll 1940s Modern

About the Item

Very uncommon pair of early Knoll chairs, designed by architect Ralph Rapson. Rapson designed a series of furniture that Knoll & Associates produced in the late 1940's. These chairs are in unrestored condition. We would advise restoration and reupholstery. But they are clean, sit well and in the current condition, could be used gently.
