Set of 2 postmodern lounge chairs — 1980s, plywood and steel, inspired by the rear legs of the Grasshopper Chair
This striking pair of 1980s lounge chairs blends postmodern form with a subtle nod to mid-century design. The curved backrest is made of black-lacquered bent plywood, with the wood grain left partially visible — a refined material contrast.
The sky blue seat fabric offers a playful counterpoint to the dark frame. Both chairs are in good vintage condition. While the current upholstery has charm, reupholstery may be considered to enhance comfort and appearance over time.
The angle and placement of the rear legs clearly take inspiration from the iconic Grasshopper Chair by Eero Saarinen — a respectful reference, interpreted with a postmodern twist.
A bold and sculptural duo for those drawn to expressive design with visual heritage and presence.
