This sculptural and highly comfortable lounge chair combines graceful organic lines with exceptional comfort, featuring a deeply reclined silhouette, winged backrest, and elegantly curved armrests. Upholstered in a refined floral textile, the chair is complemented by a beautifully sculpted wooden base with elegantly tapered legs. Cleverly constructed, the chair can be easily dismantled and reassembled, reflecting the functional ingenuity of post-war Dutch design. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
