Karl Nothhelfer cherry wood wing lounge chair for Schörle & Gölz-1950s

Designed by Prof. Karl Nothhelfer for the renowned German manufacturer Schörle & Gölz, this elegant wingback lounge chair is a refined example of post-war German modernism. Crafted from solid cherry wood, the sculptural frame features beautifully flowing arm supports, tapered legs and the distinctive high wingback silhouette that made Nothhelfer’s seating designs so recognizable. The chair has been professionally restored while preserving its original character. It is newly upholstered in a luxurious Art Deco-inspired jacquard fabric in a warm golden ochre tone, perfectly complementing the rich cherry wood. Designed with both aesthetics and ergonomics in mind, the generously proportioned seat and high back provide exceptional comfort, making it equally suitable as a reading chair or a statement piece in a sophisticated interior. Prof. Karl Nothhelfer’s furniture is increasingly appreciated by collectors of European Mid-Century design for its outstanding craftsmanship, elegant proportions and timeless appeal.
