This specific model, expertly crafted by Van der Sluis Furniture in Culemborg, is known as the so-called "higher" gentlemen’s model. Thanks to its generous and balanced proportions, the chair offers a comfortable and wonderfully relaxed seating experience. With a total height of 103 centimeters, a comfortable seat height of 39.5 centimeters, a width of 70 centimeters (seat width 55 cm), and a depth of 80 centimeters (seat depth 50 cm), this design classic fits seamlessly into any modern or vintage interior. The minimalist design is a textbook example of mid-century modern design. The sleek, black-lacquered frame creates a striking graphic contrast with the warm teak armrests, which give the chair a distinctive, organic touch. This armchair is also in absolutely pristine condition; during its thorough restoration, the entire interior was renewed, ensuring that its legendary comfort is guaranteed for decades to come. As the crowning touch, the chair has been beautifully reupholstered with a high-quality wool blend from the renowned supplier Oniro. The soft blue hue gives the piece a fresh and serene look. The heavy-gauge quality of this upholstery fabric also ensures a timeless, rich woolen appearance that looks warm and cozy. A unique opportunity for those who appreciate pure Dutch craftsmanship, comfort, and timeless elegance in an iconic design.
