Product description
This is the iconic Garden Egg Chair, designed by the Hungarian-Dutch designer Peter Ghyczy (1940–2022) in 1968, originally produced by Reuter Products. One of the most recognisable silhouettes of Space Age design, the Garden Egg is a clamshell lounge chair with a distinctive rounded fiberglass body that opens to reveal an upholstered interior seat. The chair was conceived as an outdoor piece: the clamshell top closes down over the cushioned interior, protecting it from rain and the elements when not in use — a practical and elegantly resolved design detail. With a 75 x 86 cm footprint and a seat height ranging from 36 cm open to 100 cm closed, it makes an extraordinary statement piece indoors or out.
Condition and Character
Strong vintage condition with small signs of use on the body. The fiberglass shell shows minor, age-appropriate marks consistent with use over the decades. The chair is stable and comfortable. Please review the detailed photos to inspect the exact cosmetic condition before purchasing.
