House Note · About this piece

Moulded plywood is made by gluing thin sheets of wood veneer together and pressing them into a curve under heat. Finnish furniture makers were working with it in the late 1920s, and by the 1940s the technique had produced one of the most familiar chairs of the century: low, light and armless, its seat and back two shallow dishes of plywood on bent plywood legs.

This one follows that form closely. The seat, back and legs are moulded plywood finished in a wood grain veneer, the curves shaped to the body rather than padded, and the feet carry anti-skid fabric pads to keep it steady and spare the floor. It is light enough to carry from room to room.

Put it in a study, at the end of a kitchen, beside a bed in place of a chair for clothes, or by the fire with a sheepskin thrown over it. It is good for reading, for a short sit with a coffee, and for being looked at.
