A striking Cherner Task Chair, designed by celebrated American designer Norman Cherner and produced by the Cherner Chair Company. This sculptural office chair pairs Cherner's iconic molded walnut silhouette with creamy white upholstery and a polished chrome five-star swivel base.

The beautifully curved walnut-veneered shell wraps around the upholstered back and seat, creating the fluid, organic profile for which Cherner's mid-century designs are known. Solid walnut arms continue the sweeping lines of the chair, while the chrome base and casters add a sleek, functional finish.

Equally at home behind a sophisticated executive desk or used as a statement accent chair, this is a wonderful choice for collectors and interiors mixing Mid-Century Modern, contemporary, and modernist design.
