Armchair ‘welle 2’ by Verner Panton 2000

Verner panton (1926-1998) was an inspirational and colourful personality. A unique person with a special sense of colours, shapes, light function and room. Over the course of his career, verner panton (1926-1998) introduced a series of modern lamps with personalities unlike any of his scandinavian contemporaries. With a remarkable faith in the unlimited possibilities of the form, he worked successfully to create a new set of theories about how lighting should work and how it should influence its surrounding. Welle 2 is a single-seater lounge chair. Like so much else of panton’s extensive oeuvre, these wildly imaginative organic forms land like a colourful bomb in the sleepy world of traditional furniture – and leave us anything but indifferent. This piece is in beautiful bordeaux color fabric and is in good condition consistent with age and use.
