cherner arm chair

Design Norman Cherner, 1958.
Molded plywood, solid beech arms.
Made by The Cherner Chair Company.

The Cherner family is proud to realize the reintroduction of the famed "Cherner Chair". Designed by Norman Cherner for Plycraft in 1958, this chair is found in design collections throughout the world, including the Vitra Design Museum.

The Cherner Chair is still regarded as one of the most dramatic designs utilizing the technology of molding plywood. Like the 1958 original, the Cherner armchair utilizes a molded plywood seat with a unique construction of laminated plywood in graduated thickness. The graceful and sweeping arms are made of solid beech which gives the chair additional strength and beauty. Each chair is manufactured from the original drawings, molds and specifications by Cherner Chair, a Cherner family company headed by the designer's sons.

The "walnut stained walnut" option has a walnut seat and beech arms which have all been covered with a walnut finish. The "walnut-clear stain" option has a walnut seat and solid walnut arms which have all been covered with a clear finish.
