In designing Auckland, Jean-Marie Massaud undertakes a restatement, in a contemporary key, of the classic lounge chair, which serves to reconfirm the original looks and comfort of this timeless classic. The seat of this swivel chair, is characterized by the seat’s shell-shaped structure, left deliberately exposed to evoke the armor worn by Kendo fighters. The shell protects the upholstered parts of the chair and is linked to the four-spoked base by a cantilevered metal support.

Very good condition with little to no signs of use.
