bumper side chair

"In life and design, try to pull it all down to a minimum." -Ward Bennett

With its gentle sweep and excellent lumbar support, comfort is paramount in the Bumper Chair's deceptively simple, nearly seam-free design. The arm cap and inner and outer shells are shaped from a single piece of upholstery, creating a continuous, uninterrupted welt around the seat. Originally introduced in 1964, the Bumper Chair's robust portfolio of customization options includes numerous textiles and leather upholsteries, as well as a series of base options, making it the perfect chair for a variety of lounge, living, and work spaces.

In a career that spanned over five decades, Ward Bennett designed everything from jewelry and flatware, to chairs and houses. Renowned for his interior concepts, which effortlessly blended old and modern styles, luxury and industrial materials, Bennett created furniture designs that marry classic motifs with a modern, minimalist rigor - like the Bumper Chair's contemporary take on the traditional bucket seat - and work seamlessly in a variety of spaces.

The Bumper side chair features a satin chrome base in your choice of upholstery options. The Bumper chair is offered online in one textile option but may be specified with different arm cap and cushion upholstery. Please call the hive showroom to order this version.
