Basic information

Platner Easy Chair and Ottoman Knoll

Designed by Warren Platner in 1966.

In 1966 the Platner Collection captured the "decorative, gentle, graceful" shapes that were beginning to infiltrate the modern vocabulary. The pieces are created by welding hundreds of curved steel rods to circular frames, simultaneously serving as structure and ornament. The Easy Chair and Ottoman were only produced between 1966 and 1988. The hand crafted Easy Chair is the epitome of glamorous comfort and it is available with or without the Ottoman, which can also be used independently. Frame: Hand manufactured forms created by vertical steel wire rods welded to circular horizontal and edge-framing rods. Bright nickel finish with clear lacquer protection. Base: Clear plastic extrusion ring for smooth bottom surface. Upholstery: Moulded fibreglass shell with foam cushion quilting. Cushions with latex core and zipper cover attach to seat with Velcro.
