Adrian Pearsall Sculptural Lounge Chair

Creator: Adrian Pearsall - Craft Associates
Offered by: Hobbs Modern

Description
A striking sculptural lounge chair designed by American architect and furniture designer Adrian Pearsall for Craft Associates, dating from circa 1968. Pearsall (1925–2011) is celebrated for his bold, architectural forms and expressive use of solid wood — and this chair is a beautiful example of his innovative mid-century vision.

The frame is crafted from solid walnut, showcasing warm grain tones and elegant structural geometry. The gently flared arms and rounded posts create a soft organic profile, balanced by clean architectural lines and a floating seat form — a look that is distinctly Pearsall and instantly recognizable.

This chair remains in original vintage condition, retaining honest age character and some light wear on the arm caps that speaks to its history and authenticity. The seat and back have been newly upholstered in a vibrant Knoll blue fabric, offering a fresh, modern contrast against the walnut frame while honoring the period aesthetic.

Comfortable, sculptural, and collectible — this is a wonderful example of Pearsall’s work for Craft Associates and a standout accent chair for any modern interior.
