Lounge Chair Basque by Eichholz – M&O 2017 (06)



Lounge Chair Basque by Eichholz

I see I have an enourmous backlog in showing my own photo’s here. This is mainly because I haven’t taken the time to find a proper title on many occasions or noted even creator or designer. The main reason for starting now to work on this is the fact that I now can try to identify the chairs I took photo’s of via Google lens.

I first believed this is the Ralph Lauren Hudson Street lounge chair, but it is a replica. I’m missing 4 nuts on the sides…I had hoped Maison & Object in Paris would have banned a replica….but not….Eichholz “works with in house designers err I would say copiists”

Luckily I had a photo of a tag.

Prototype Feltri Chair by Gaetano Pesce on Wright

A Happy 2024 to you all. Like last year I’ll try to post at least once per day in 2024. Last year, after Easter, I stopped when I was hospitalized for 10 days and had to lie down for a couple of weeks. Then my whole rhythm had disappeared. A new Year with new chances!

Lot 140 at a Wright Auction (same as lot 140 at the Lama Auction) shows us:

one of Pesce’s two original studies for the Feltri chair. The felt is covered in rubber, which allows it to be washed and waterproofed. This prototype’s base is made of bent felt treated with a rigid resin; this idea was later abandoned because of the materials’ fragility.

My New Year’s resolution for 2023 was to post here one post per day this year. Unfortunately I was taken up in Hospital shortly after Easter and had to be lying horizontally for a couple of weeks…I’m up again at May 5 and will be backdating a couple of posts to keep the New Years’s Resolution “intact”

I’m so glad to have the site moved and operational again. It is possible I’m going to post more than one post per day: photo’s and as little tekst as possible.

Currently I’ve fallen in love with cane chairs. At the beginning of the 2021 Summer this seems apt as a caned seat and back make a chair airy, light and comfortable as the cane stretches a little bit under your weight.

The Balboa Chair is chique as well because both the inside and outside are made of cane.

….and back to the 2016 theme, as the Lovecraft theme misses the possibility to show tags at a post which makes it less practical to search certain items.
