About the Item

A unique 'Chariot' chaise lounge by Paul Tuttle for Strassle International, circa 1972 Switzerland. Constructed from chrome plated tubular steel frame and leather sling, this suspended design chaise is comfortable, collectible, and looks incredible. The unique sling design provides a floating appearance while giving additional comfort - like laying on a cloud, with head bolster pillow and ample size this is a perfect place to nap, read a book, soak in a view and given its classic timeless style - even use just as a sculptural work of art. Great for collectors and investors or rare art and design objects. This 'Chariot' Chaise Lounge by Paul Tuttle for Strassle International would work great in a Post-Modern, Mid-Century Modern, Space Age Mod, Scandanavian Modern or Danish Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Contemporary or Zen / Minimalism room. Also consider mixing it up in a Traditional, Transitional, Hollywood Regency, Classical or Art Deco room with a splash of juxtaposition. Would also be an apt choice in a commercial project such as a hotel lobby lounge or members club, creative design studio or high-rise executive office. MEASUREMENTS: 28.25" H x 71" W x 24" D CONDITION: Good vintage condition with age appropriate wear. Base and frame with light patina and wear. Leather with light wear, scratches and scuffing. Attractive vintage example ready for immediate use in a vintage setting.

Oxblood Leather MR Adjustable Chaise Lounge by Mies van der Rohe for Knoll Intl

Oxblood Leather MR Adjustable Chaise Lounge by Mies van der Rohe for Knoll Intl

By Knoll, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe

Located in Los Angeles, CA

A beautifully preserved example of the iconic MR Chaise Lounge, originally designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1927 and later produced by Knoll International. This particular piece is best attributed to Knoll’s mid to late 1980s to 1990s production, distinguished by its seamless heavy-gauge tubular steel frame with a continuous bend, stitched (as opposed to riveted) saddle leather support straps, exposed button-head cushion straps, and its original deep oxblood / burgundy leather upholstery. Unlike earlier two-position examples from the 1970s, this model features Knoll’s three-position reclining system, a refinement introduced in the late 20th century to enhance comfort and usability. The original leather cushion presents beautifully, with a rich, even patina consistent with careful use in a well-maintained environment. As expected of Knoll International’s production in the 1980s and 1990s, the leather is of exceptional quality, supple yet robust, complemented by thick matching saddle-leather straps with stitched detailing that reinforce the chaise’s luxurious character. The polished tubular steel retains its bright luster with only minimal signs of age, while the upholstery remains supple, surface-rich, and clearly consistent with Knoll’s late-20th-century construction methods. Highly versatile, this MR Adjustable Chaise...
