Pair of Lucite and Brass "Sling" Lounge Chairs by Charles Hollis Jones

About the Item

CHJ 2001 Charles Hollis Jones sling chair, USA, 1969 Acrylic and solid brass frames Measures: 24.75 W x 27 D x 24.25 H inches Literature: Charles Hollis Jones, Jones and Wolf. The Sling Chair is part the Waterfall Line. About the Waterfall Line The inspiration for the Waterfall line is drawn from the natural form of water falling, either from a waterfall or fountain. The concept behind it was to capture marriage, love, as well as the softness that is represented in the rest of Charles’ work. The waterfall coffee table which is stainless steel with Lucite edges, draws its form from the way waterfalls can sometimes be silver in the middle with clear on the edges. The entire line is put back in the oven a second time and then cooled, and this is done to remove any stress in the Lucite so that it retains its integrity for many years.

  • Pair of Rare Charles Hollis Jones "Post Line" Lounge Chairs Signed
    By Charles Hollis Jones
    Located in Cathedral City, CA
    Pair of signed sculptural armchairs part of the Post Line designed and made by Charles Hollis Jones Provenance directly from CHJ private collection About Charles Hollis Jones: Charles Hollis Jones is an American artist and furniture designer who is recognized by the Smithsonian Institution for his pioneering use of acrylic and lucite. Born in Bloomington, Indiana in 1945, Jones moved to Los Angeles, California at the age of 16 and founded CHJ Designs. At the time, acrylic and plastic were not commonly used as a material for upscale furniture and art, but Jones, seeing its potential, began creating unique pieces for some of the city’s most renowned showrooms, such as Hudson-Rissman. His work was well received by both art critics and Hollywood celebrities alike. Frank Sinatra, Lucille Ball and Johnny Carson were among some of the first to commission Jones Tennessee Williams commissioned Jones to design a comfortable, yet modern writing chair. The result was the Wisteria chair, where the writer spent much time when at home. In the 1970s Jones crafted his award-winning Edison Lamp Using original Thomas Edison light bulbs, Jones created a unique lamp with steel and lucite to show the inner workings of Edison’s original technology. This won him the California Design 11 Competition and special recognition from the German government. His work has been featured in a number of museums, including the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena, California, and the The Los Angeles Times has referred to him as a pioneer in acrylic design.”Jones resides in the Burbank area of Los Angeles and is still designing furniture and accessories. He is active in numerous charities and often designs awards for various organizations including the sculpture for the 2008 Golden Heart Award held at the Beverly Hills Hotel to honor Clancy Imislund for his contributions to the Midnight Mission. About the Post Line The Post Line was created in the late 60’s. The first 10 pieces were originally designed for a company called Hudson Rissman. In the 70’s, Charles added several additions to the Post Line, this ended up being called the Post Trust Line. The Post Line was also recently featured in LACMA’s latest book and show: Living in a modern way. This line has had many influences including the double wedding band...
