About the Item

Space age tub chair designed by French designer Raphael Raffel. This particular version created using fiberglass for the frame: ( other versions produced used molded plastic) Upholstered in leather and vinyl. Raphael Raffel, was a notable figure in the field of interior furniture design. Active primarily in the mid-20th century, Designs were often characterized by their modernist aesthetics and incorporating functional forms. This approach was part of the broader modernist movement in art and design, which emphasized minimalism and a break from traditional ornamental styles. Besides furniture, Raffel also made significant contributions to interior design. His approach often involved integrating the design of the furniture with the overall architectural space, creating a cohesive and harmonious environment. His influence was particularly notable in France, where he was part of a movement that helped to define French modernist design in the post-World War II era.
