Sphere chair by Boris Tabacoff

SOLD TO NEW YORK CITY (USA)

About the item: 

WOW! Space age design at its best.

Boris Tabacoff designed multiple space age designs in the 70s for Mobilier Modulaire Moderne; a French manufacturer of that time.

What distinguished Tabacoff designs from other space age designs is his free standing (floating) shell. Only one vertical bar connects the shell and the frame and this is absolutely unique.

As well, his use of materials was modern and fresh; plexiglass, metal/chrome and leather.

The Sphere is definitely one of his masterpiece. Because of the low production numbers of Tabacoff chairs, these items are very well sought after. Hence, collectable. This is the lounge chair/armchair edition.

This specific chair has brown plexiglass, chrome frame and white leather pillow.

About its condition: 

In absolute stunning condition. Some minor scratches on the plexiglass but no structural damage. The frame has never been repaired or welded before and the chrome is without any corrosion. The cushion leather is completely new.
