Elda Chair by Joe Colombo

Creator: Joe Colombo
Offered by: Machine Age

Description
Designed by Joe Colombo in 1965 (and named for his wife), the iconic Elda Chair marries a powerful Space Age frame of fiberglass with deep channeled cushions (seven detachable in all) that envelope the sitter in a roomy, comfortable embrace. The entire lounge chair sits on a swiveling base.

Seat cushion will require reupholstering, perhaps in a constrasting leather.
