Rare Antti Nurmesniemi for Palace Hotel Lounge Chair in Black Upholstery

About the Item

Antti Nurmesniemi for Palace Hotel, Helsinki, lounge chair, leatherette, fabric, lacquered birch, Finland, 1952 In 1952, the distinguished Finnish designer Antti Nurmesniemi conceived this chair exclusively for the Palace Hotel, situated in the city of Helsinki. Simultaneously with the Helsinki Olympics, the Palace Hotel commenced its operations. The building is designed by the accomplished architects Viljo Revell and Keijo Petäjä. The interior is decorated by Antti Nurmesniemi and other notable designers. The chair bears an unconventional form. The shell seat is positioned on a wooden cross-shaped framework. The use of a minimalist color palette, consisting solely of black and white colors, serves to enhance the chair's modern and streamlined appearance. Please note that we advise reupholstery before use. This item contains threadbare upholstery with loose seams and small stains. Reupholstery can be done before shipping by our experienced craftspeople in our own in-house restoration atelier. With high attention for the original, they make sure every piece contains its value and is ready for the many years to come. We kindly ask you to contact our design experts for further information about the endless possibilities our restoration and upholstery atelier has to offer. Of course, a locally organized reupholstery is possible as well.
