About the Item

The “Bumerang Chair” is a characteristic piece of furniture from the Polish People’s Republic (PRL) era. Its name comes from the distinctive shape of the backrest, resembling a boomerang. The chair was often made from wood or wood-like materials, featuring simple and minimalist lines, and it was commonly painted in walnut or brown colors. This iconic chair serves as an example of design from that period. The Bumerang Chair was a popular furniture item during the PRL era due to its simplicity, functionality, and affordable price. Its design reflected the minimalist trends of that time. The backrest of the chair indeed had a shape reminiscent of a boomerang, giving it a unique appearance. Despite being a relatively simple piece of furniture, the Bumerang Chair gained significant popularity and became a symbol of that era in Polish design. Thanks to its functionality and low cost, it was widely used in various places such as homes, offices, schools, and public institutions. Today, the Bumerang Chair can be seen as a nostalgic element, harkening back to the aesthetics of the PRL years. Its distinctive design appeals to collectors and vintage enthusiasts who seek furniture and items from that era. We can prepare this chair also in another wood and fabric color.
