This early Mid-Century Modern lounge armchair was manufactured by Thonet circa late 40s - early 50s. This chair design has been attributed to the noted American Modern designer Russel Wright. The chair features a minimal profile design of tiger maple wood, known for exotic striations in the grain, that consist entirely of the sculpted arms at 23" ht that flow seamlessly into the angled "A" frame legs. This was amongst Russel Wright’s most iconic design choices. The frame has been refinished with newly upholstered body in a wonderful woven cream and beige geometric print that complements the dark tiger maple. This lounge chair is shown with another Thonet chair with the side rail present. That variation is listed for purchase separately.
