DWR : Womb Chair


Loving this chair. It's actually very comfortable, took a test drive this weekend at a DWR in Downtown Seattle.

Womb™ Chair - Fabric


When Florence Knoll challenged Finnish-born architect and designer Eero Saarinen in 1948 to create a chair that she could curl up in, she had found an apt candidate for the task. The Womb Chair's enveloping, lap-like form continues to be one of the most iconic and recognized representations of mid-century Scandinavian organic modernism. In fact, ask most designers and architects what lounge chair design they covet and they'll promptly tell you it's the Womb Chair. Manufactured by Knoll according to the original and exacting specifications of the designer. Made in U.S.A.
Foam applied over a molded fiberglass shell creates a single-piece that perfectly facilitates a relaxed sitting posture.
The slender steel rod base is chrome-plated using a multiple step process that results in a flawlessly polished mirror finish.
Fabric upholstery options include Mohair, Boucle, and Cato. In stock colors are swatched left.
For additional custom color options, please see the Measurements and Materials tab below.
Additional seat and back cushions provide a further degree of comfort.
Womb™ Ottoman available, sold separately.
Greenguard certified.
