These sculptural chairs exemplify Jones’ iconic use of thick polished Lucite combined with chromed hardware, a design language that helped define Hollywood Regency and American Mid-Century Modern luxury furniture.

The chairs feature dramatic arched Lucite waterfall legs and arms, creating a floating architectural profile that allows the upholstery to visually hover within the transparent structure. This signature design became one of the most recognizable forms in Charles Hollis Jones’ celebrated Lucite furniture collections, widely favored by interior designers for its ability to add sculptural presence while maintaining visual lightness in a room.

Each chair retains its original custom chromed hardware designed by Charles Hollis Jones, securing the upholstered seat and backrest within the Lucite frame. The frames are substantial and beautifully engineered, demonstrating the designer’s mastery of acrylic furniture construction during the 1970s American design movement.

These chairs are ideal for luxury dining rooms, contemporary interiors, Hollywood Regency spaces, Palm Beach style homes, or modern designer dining environments.
