About the Item

Iconic Sandow lounge chair (chaise longue) designed by René Herbst and produced by Ecart International. One of the most recognizable examples of early modernist furniture design, the chair features a nickel-plated steel frame with elastic Sandow cord suspension and an adjustable backrest. The nickel-plated frame shows signs of age and wear consistent with time, developing a beautiful and authentic patina that enhances its character. The elastic suspension cords have faded due to sun exposure over the years. As a result, the piece is best appreciated as a collectible design object and sculptural statement rather than for regular everyday use. A rare and highly decorative piece that perfectly reflects René Herbst's innovative combination of industrial materials, functionalism, and timeless elegance. Good vintage condition with age-related wear, authentic patina to the nickel-plated frame, and sun-faded suspension cords. The chair is primarily offered as a design collectible and decorative object.
