About the Item
A pair of "Jennifer" lounge chairs designed by renowned 70s and 80s California designer, Michael Taylor (1927 – 1986). This incredible style of "stone" fiberglass chairs was originally designed for famed, Oscar winning actress Jennifer Jones who just wanted the perfect place to curl up and relax. According to the New York Times, Taylor favored "his brawny “rich Flintstones” aesthetic that clinched his celebrity and that decorators still feed on" as early as 1960." This style eventually became known as a "California look" using the indoor-outdoor living with both natural and faux materials. This pair of chairs, which date to C. 1985, will be a fabulous, easy addition to a Mid-Century Modern or Contemporary home. They could also be added to a more traditional home for that quirky and wonderful statement in a gameroom, study, or covered lanai. They are ready to be used as is or if you decide to pair them with your cushions suitable to your color and décor.

Monumental Pair of Fiberglass 'Jennifer' Lounge Chairs by Michael Taylor, 1970s
By Michael Taylor
Located in Los Angeles, CA
So many incredible aspects to this pair of monumentally sized 'Jennifer' lounge chairs by Michael Taylor, circa 1970s, we will attempt to list them all in this description.
First, and most noticeably, is the size. They are huge, humungous, monumental, enormous... I mean, they are incredibly large. You can easily fit two people and a dog in a single chair and have room to cuddle, snuggle, hang-out, watch a movie, have drinks in an intimate setting, or even fall asleep comfortably cradled. It's not just how wide they are but also the depth also provides a dramatic increase in overall 'lounging' footprint of the chairs. These chairs are so large, they shouldn't even be called chairs, they are somewhere between a loveseat and a daybed - perhaps they should be called lovebeds instead?
The second thing that we absolutely love about these chairs is its design history. The Jennifer chair is one of Michael's earliest designs. Michael designed it for actress Jennifer Jones (Mrs. Norton Simon), she asked him for a chair that she could curl her legs in and relax and this monumental chair...
