Egon Eiermann E10 wicker lounge chair, Germany, 1960s

An iconic and highly sought-after E10 lounge chair designed by Egon Eiermann in the 1960s. This sculptural wicker masterpiece perfectly embodies the organic modernism that made Eiermann one of Germany’s most celebrated post-war designers. Handwoven from natural wicker, the chair features a dramatic funnel-shaped silhouette that appears to float above its cylindrical base. The sweeping circular form creates an inviting cocoon-like seat while showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and visual lightness. Its architectural geometry and innovative construction make it as much a piece of functional sculpture as a comfortable lounge chair. The warm honey-toned wicker has acquired a beautiful patina over time, highlighting the richness of the natural material. Whether placed in a sophisticated living room, sunroom, conservatory, boutique hotel, or design-focused interior, this chair serves as an unmistakable statement piece. Today, original examples are increasingly difficult to source and are highly appreciated by collectors of Mid-Century Modern and German design. Very good vintage condition with minor signs of age and use consistent with its age. The wicker remains strong and structurally sound throughout, displaying a lovely natural patina and only light wear commensurate with decades of careful use.
