About the Item

These rustic modernist solid oak lounge chairs by Dittmann & Co for AWA Radboud, crafted in the Netherlands during the 1970s, are a testament to robust design and enduring craftsmanship. The chairs, devoid of armrests, embrace the essence of the Brutalist aesthetic with their substantial all-wood construction and dark-stained oak that speaks to both strength and simplicity. Each chair is a sculptural work, with curved and rounded slats forming the seats and backs, evoking the organic intricacies of nature. The pitched design of both the seat and back ensures that comfort is not sacrificed for style, allowing for a lounging experience that is both ergonomic and indulgent. The braced leg stretchers provide stability and add to the architectural interest of the chairs, further accentuating their bold and rustic appeal. These pieces carry a rustic modern charm that would seamlessly integrate into the relaxed ambiance of a modern cabin or lake house, bringing with them a sense of earthiness and raw beauty. Their design echoes the celebrated work of Pierre Chapo and Guillerme et Chambron, with a nod to the functionality and solid forms characteristic of their work. Each chair stands at a height of 31.5 inches, with a width of 24 inches and a depth of 29.5 inches, and the seat height is a comfortable 14.5 inches at the front. Several of the chairs proudly bears the original paper label on the underside of the seat, a mark of authenticity and a connection to its heritage. With two chairs available (priced individually), this set offers a unique opportunity to own a slice of design history, to bring into your home furniture that is not just a place to sit, but a conversation piece, a focal point, and a celebration of the era that boldly redefined the boundaries of design.
