About This Piece

Vintage Design

One of the most famous plywood lounge chairs designed by Gerald Summers in 1933 for his own company in London 'The Makers of Simple Furniture'. The original 1930s chairs are museum pieces and extremely expensive, if available.

Iconic chair and important in design history.
It is made of single sheets of birch plywood, not a single screw or joint has been used.
