Wooden children's chair.

Characteristics

We have two available of these solid, well-made wooden chairs with slightly lower seat heights (41cm) and wide seat bases (41cm) making them perfect for children to use. With some minor bumps and knocks to the legs and edges but otherwise in good condition.  

Technical Information

Date: 20^th century
Height: 77 cm
Width: 41 cm
Depth: 35 cm

Sustainability

The average piece of furniture generates approximately 47kg of carbon dioxide equivalents – roughly the same as burning 5.3 gallons of petrol. Buying this item second-hand versus a newly made equivalent recovers the energy used to make it, rather than generating further emissions and using new materials.

A Series 7 replica bent plywood chair on a polished chrome four-leg base.

Characteristics

Also known as the 3107 chair, the Series 7 chair was first produced in 1955, designed by Arne Jacobson and produced by Fritz Hansen. Experimentation with pressure moulding and laminating led to this iconic design, a forerunner of ‘60s pop style. A pressure moulded ash plywood frame is elevated on stackable, chrome-plated steel legs.

Condition is generally very good, with some superficial signs of use and minor scuffing.
