Description
Carlo Hauner and Martin Eisler Concha Lounge Chair, Brazil - 1950s. The Chair has been reupholstered. The Concha Chair which translates to "shell chair" in English, is one of Eisler's and Hauner's most iconic designs. The Concha Chair is characterized by its unique, organic shape, resembling a seashell or clam. It typically features a curved, molded plywood or fiberglass shell for the seat and backrest, resting on a metal or wooden base. The Chair is celebrated for its comfort and aesthetic appeal, reflecting the modernist design principles of the mid-20th century. It remains a sought-after piece by collectors and enthusiasts of mid-century modern design. Martin Eisler's and Carlo Hauner's work, including the Concha Chair, is a testament to the rich history of design in Brazil during that era.
