Bentwood armchair likely designed by British architect Eric Lyons and produced in the 1950s.
Two armchairs available. Price per chair. Corresponding small sofa also available.
Frame in good condition, with some wear and tear commensurate with age.
Newly upholstered with a 70% Viscose 30% Linen mix by Prestigious Textiles.
Lyons was one of a range of designers working with Tecta from the mid 1940s to create furniture that made use of laminated frames - layers of beech tightly bonded together and then moulded. This process kept material costs low without compromising creativity of form or strength of structure.
As an architect Lyons was a postwar pioneer of Modernism who worked under Walter Gropius and went on to create Span Developments which are now considered part of the UK's historic architectural environment.
