Retro Chairs
Retro Chairs are inspired by designs of the recent past. These designs tend to be associated with pop-culture and have a whimsical theme. The Egg Chair designed by Arne Jacobsen for the Copenhagen Hotel in the 1950’s is a classic Retro piece. Featuring a winged headrest and swivel base this sculptural chair continues to find a place in modern homes and reception spaces 60 years on from its first release.
Another Retro Classic is the Eames Lounge and Ottoman designed by the husband and wife team of Ray & Charles Eames. It was manufactured in the USA with a moulded plywood shell and timber veneer, leather upholstery and metal swivel base. The design was considered as a modern alternative to the traditional English club chair. In 1953 it won first price in the Milan Triennial and is held in The Museum of Modern Art's (MoMA) furniture collection.
Retro Style creates a welcome sense of fun and whimsy that is often missing in modern, minimalist design. Selecting Retro Lounge Chair pieces like the replica Ball Chair, for your home will add joy and won’t go unnoticed by visitors! Featuring a round fibreglass body swivelling on a pedestal base with upholstered interior, it is the perfect retro lounge chair for curling up in and reading book.
Retro Chairs are a nod to our nostalgic past and are a celebration of popular culture. At Replica Furniture we stock a wide range of Retro Chairs including replica Egg Chairs, Swan Chairs and replica Eames Lounge and Ottomans. In addition to these lounge chairs we also stock Retro dining chairs like the replica Hans Wegner Wishbone chair, Elbow chair, Navy chair and Harry Bertoia chair.
