Elda Chair by Joe Colombo
-
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. -
