An iconic armchair, this Concorde lounge chair, designed in 1966 by Pierre Paulin for Artifort. The chair was originally designed for the waiting areas of the British-French supersonic Concorde aircraft. A simple and sleek lounge chair on a heavy metal sled base.
In the Netherlands, the lounge chair was nicknamed ‘de Kwek’ (the Quack), due to its shape reminiscent of a duck's beak.
This particular example features new internals and has been (very neatly) reupholstered in a mottled blue/purple wool fabric. In good condition with light signs of wear on the base.
