One of the most recognizable examples of early modernist furniture design, the chair features a nickel-plated steel frame with elastic Sandow cord suspension and an adjustable backrest.

The nickel-plated frame shows signs of age and wear consistent with time, developing a beautiful and authentic patina that enhances its character. The elastic suspension cords have faded due to sun exposure over the years. As a result, the piece is best appreciated as a collectible design object and sculptural statement rather than for regular everyday use.

A rare and highly decorative piece that perfectly reflects René Herbst's innovative combination of industrial materials, functionalism, and timeless elegance.

Good vintage condition with age-related wear, authentic patina to the nickel-plated frame, and sun-faded suspension cords. The chair is primarily offered as a design collectible and decorative object. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
