About the Item

A sculptural icon of 1960s Mexican modernism, this lounge chair by Don Shoemaker for Señal S.A. showcases the designer’s signature organic lines and masterful craftsmanship. Carved from solid cocobolo, the frame features flowing, almost zoomorphic curves and richly figured grain with striking contrast throughout. The original leather sling seat is intact and comfortably worn, offering a beautiful patina that speaks to the chair’s authenticity and age. In good original condition with only minor signs of wear, this piece retains its original label from Señal S.A., affirming its provenance. A rare and collectible work from one of Latin America’s most celebrated designers—bold, tactile, and unmistakably timeless. Width: 23.5” Depth: 28” Height: 27” Free local delivery available.
