Florence Knoll for Knoll Associates – Pair of Slipper Chairs (Model 51, 1955 Design)
A timeless study in proportion and restraint, this elegant pair of Florence Knoll slipper chairs reflects the designer’s architectural approach to modern living. Originally introduced in 1955 as Model 51, the design remains one of Knoll’s most enduring refined, minimal, and effortlessly versatile.
These authentic examples were produced by Knoll Associates, Inc., New York, and retain their original chrome-plated steel frames, offering a clean, linear foundation that defines the silhouette. The chairs have been professionally reupholstered in Maharam fabric, featuring a richly textured blue geometric weave that feels both fresh and true to the period.
The original Knoll Associates label remains intact beneath the chairs, further confirming authenticity.
Comfortable and well-proportioned, this pair works beautifully in both residential and professional interiors ideal for lounge, office, or conversational settings.
Sold as a matching pair.
