The Rex Chair is one of the most renowned examples of Slovenian industrial design. It was designed in 1952 by architect and designer Niko Kralj, who at the time led Stol’s development department. Kralj is regarded as one of the great legends of industrial design worldwide.

The Rex Chair was the first chair in Slovenia designed for mass production, made using compressed, perforated plywood technology. It became a benchmark of ergonomic and functional excellence, and a cult object among design-aware individuals around the world. To date, more than 2 million chairs have been produced.

The Rex Chair is part of the collections of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, the Designmuseum Danmark, and the MuseumsQuartier in Vienna.
