Design of the Day - Eero Saarinen's Womb Chair (1948)





 



This large and very comfortable lounge chair was designed by Eero Saarinen in 1948 and is called the Womb Chair because of its unique, enveloping shape. The chair and ottoman are completely upholstered in a wool & polyester blend fabric over a foam-lined molded fiberglass frame.

Features:
  • Dimensions:
  • Chair: Width: 39.5" x Height: 36" x Depth: 34"
  • Ottoman: Width: 26" x Height: 19" x Depth: 22"


The popularity of this chair has seen a resurgence in the last year, perhaps due to its scale, minimalist form and classic mid-century design. If you are interested in owning a high quality reproduction of this classic chair, please  do not hesitate to contact us.
