About the Item

A beautifully crafted rattan lounge chair by Isamu Kenmochi, one of Japan’s foremost modernist designers. This piece reflects Kenmochi’s celebrated approach of merging traditional Japanese materials with modern, organic forms. Unlike many lighter-toned examples, this version features a strikingly dark woven rattan finish that enhances its sculptural presence and warmth. Its enveloping, rounded silhouette offers exceptional comfort while maintaining a minimal, elegant aesthetic. Perfect for serene interiors, reading corners, or as an accent in modern, wabi-sabi, or naturalist design schemes.
