With its sweeping form, integral back support, and intentionally short seat, Ward Bennett's Bumper Lounge Chair (1964) is beautifully built for comfort. Inspired by a tub-shaped swivel chair used by George Washington in his Mount Vernon estate, Bennett crafted Bumper's short seat and comfortable pitch to relieve pressure on the lower back and ensure relaxation when lounging. The lounge chair's generous seat and arms are masterfully upholstered leather or fabric with minimal seaming. Crafted in North Carolina by skilled artisans using globally sourced materials.
