Some time ago somebody drew my attention to this nice Clef Chair. I’ve lost the pointer, but still like this one. As we have a Clef Chair already with a high Google image ranking we should share this one as well.

Found it somewhere and tried to determinate its provenance (i.e. designer and manufacturer). Found these links:
It was founded in 1990. Ownership and management are Dutch. We operate under Philippine laws and regulations, and are located in Angono, just outside Metro Manila. The company’s total area 110,000 square meters, with a production floor area of 42,000 square meters. We produce hand-made decorations, mainly out of polyester resin, reinforced with fiberglass and specialize in life-size and bigger-than-life figurines of all sorts. We take pride in our quality of detail and the finishing and our designs. We also design and manufacture special models upon request. Currently, the company provides work for approximately 800 people including subcontractors. It is our philosophy that creating and providing enjoyable working conditions will reflect in the quality and appearance of our products, so every effort is taken to ensure and improve these conditions. We ship our products all over the world, with Europe and the U.S.A. being our biggest markets. The company enjoys a healthy, steady growth and is financially stable. Our whole collection of products is on display in our showroom, which has a floor area of almost 1,200 square meters.

Just found it on cafetschichold via Tumbling [where it disappeared since]. Curious to know who is responsible for this Cesca Parody. Google suggests Mexican artist Edgar Orlaineta…which is in line with Steve Turner Contemporary’s site and with Cosmocopa.
Born in Mexico City in 1972, Edgar Orlaineta received an MFA from Pratt Institute, New York (2004) and a BFA from Escuela Nacional de Pintura y Grabado, Mexico City (1998). He has had solo exhibitions at Steve Turner Contemporary, Los Angeles; Casa Estudio Luis Barragan, Mexico City; Galería de Arte Mexicano, Mexico City and Sara Meltzer Gallery, New York. His work will be included in the upcoming exhibition Factory Direct at the Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh.

Interesting to know the designer


Surfing Cowboys have asked if we recognized this hanging chair. We don’t, but maybe one of our readers?
Update August 19, 2026: The lady in the comments, Anita, is right: It is a Rupert Oliver Designs Hanging Leaf Chair 1960s. It even has it’s own website: Leafchair.com
