Designed by the legendary jindřich halabala for up závody in the 1930s, the h-237 model is an iconic example of how bentwood technology was used to create fluid, sculptural forms.

the design is defined by its dramatic, sweeping bentwood armrests that transition seamlessly into the legs, creating a continuous, elegant curve. This silhouette is one of the most recognizable and sought-after designs from the halabala era.
