This striking swivel armchair is a design by Gerard van den Berg for the Dutch furniture manufacturer Montis. The design is characterized by the generous, organically shaped rattan shell resting on a sturdy trumpet base, also covered in rattan. This piece of furniture is a representative example of the innovative Dutch Design of the 1970s, in which natural materials were combined with high seating comfort.
The armchair is crafted from white lacquered rattan and features a thick, comfortable seat cushion and a matching head cushion, both upholstered in a light blue mottled fabric. The chair rotates 360 degrees, which contributes to its functionality. The dimensions are 110 centimeters in width, 93 centimeters in depth, and 114 centimeters in height, with a seat height of 42 centimeters.
The furniture is in good condition commensurate with its age and use. The rattan weave is intact and the swivel function works properly. The original finish and the character of the design have been well preserved. This armchair forms a strong visual element in an interior and fits perfectly in a room with an eclectic, vintage, or bohemian style. It is an inviting chair for a reading nook or as a striking accent in a living room.
