Product description
The 'Karel Doorman' chaise longue is an iconic design by Dutch designer Rob Eckhardt, originally introduced in the 1980s. This specific piece stands out due to its asymmetrical, postmodern silhouette and striking multicolored striped upholstery, which gives the piece a distinctive character. The design rests on a curved frame of chrome-plated tubular steel, which seamlessly transitions into a floating armrest. The seat and backrest are upholstered in a woven textile in which shades of blue, black, green, and purple come together. This model is a representative example of Dutch Design from the postmodern era and reflects the experimental approach to form and function that is characteristic of Eckhardt's work. The chaise longue is in reasonably functional condition while retaining its original appearance. The piece shows characteristic signs of use consistent with its age, which contributes to its authentic vintage charm. Corners of the upholstery are partially scratched open by a pet. Reupholstering is the better option. This distinctive piece of seating acts as a sculptural element in the room. It comes into its own particularly well in an eclectic, postmodern, or contemporary interior, where it serves both as a comfortable resting place and as a visual statement.
