A Pair of Petite Mid-Century Socialist Lounge Chairs
About the Item
This pair of Mid-Century Lounge Chairs features barrel backs, round seats and large swiveling casters. Hungarian design in the post-war period was very functional and modern, closely following Western European trends. Many pieces were Brutalist in inspiration, eschewing traditional forms in favor of Socialist Modernism. These chairs were stylish and contemporary, probably made for Party officials or other privileged individuals. These pieces highlight a mostly forgotten part of European history. The chairs were re-upholstered in purple mohair.
