Conceived in 1928, this striking and iconic furniture piece was designed by two more design greats – Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand. However, it was not put into production until 1965. The most notable part of this lounger is the polished trivalent chrome-plated steel frame which sits on the seat base.
