Flag Halyard Lounge Chair: Dark

USD $1,560.00

The Flag Halyard Chair was originally designed by Hans J. Wegner in 1950. It features a solid stainless steel frame, 220 meters of specially developed flag line forming the seat and back, hide bolster, and a long-haired sheepskin for added comfort.

The idea for the Flag Halyard Chair was conceived on a hot summer afternoon while Wegner was at a family beach outing, digging himself into the sand to create a comfortable lounging position to watch his children. Back at his summerhouse, he made the first sketches using the seating angles he had conceived on the beach.

Shown with Black Halyard Rope on Black Powder Coat Steel, with Black Italian Aniline Leather Bolster and Sheep Skin.

The Archetype Forms Flag Halyard Lounge Chair is a faithful reproduction of the original Hans Wegner Flag Halyard Chair, also known as the Model pp225 Flag Halyard Chair.
