About the Item

Sculptural Wave Lounge Chair in Original Red Velour with White Molded Base, 1970s Striking and unmistakably bold, this sculptural lounge chair features an organic, wave-like silhouette that captures the daring spirit of 1970s modernist design. With its sinuous lines and vivid color palette, the chair effortlessly blends art and comfort in a form that commands attention. Upholstered in its original red velour fabric, the chair offers a rich, plush texture with a luminous sheen that enhances its dramatic presence. The soft, cylindrical cushions are arranged in a tiered formation, providing both ergonomic support and visual rhythm. The low-slung seat is ideal for reclining, while the contoured shape encourages relaxed, informal lounging. The sleek, continuous white molded base complements the bold upholstery, giving the chair a floating appearance and a clean, futuristic edge. Though the designer remains unknown, the form and materials are clearly inspired by the Space Age and postmodern design movements of the late 20th century. It evokes the aesthetic of influential figures like Adrian Pearsall or Joe Colombo, while standing on its own as a unique and rare piece. Whether placed in a modernist living space, creative studio, or collector’s interior, this chair offers sculptural beauty and vintage authenticity. Dimensions (Approximate): Height: 81 cm (31.9 in.) Width: 80 cm (31.5 in.) Depth: 90 cm (35.4 in.) Seat Height: 33 cm (13 in.) In excellent vintage condition. The chair retains its original red velour upholstery, and the white molded frame shows only minor traces of use consistent with age. A rare opportunity to own a statement piece that captures the playful, visionary energy of 1970s design. A sculptural lounge that is as comfortable as it is iconic.
