by Norman Cherner from Cherner
cherner task arm chair with upholstered seat
Design Norman Cherner, 1958
Laminated molded plywood, chrome steel base & arms, upholstery
Made by The Cherner Chair Company
The new Cherner Task chair combines molded plywood and steel in a dramatic yet minimal design for the work environment. The spidery swivel base and curvaceous molded shell highlight the structural capabilities of the two materials. It is a further development of the classic molded plywood Cherner Chair. A strong, lightweight and graceful addition to the home or office, the Cherner task chair is available with or without armrests in all Cherner finishes and upholstery options
Cherner chairs and stools are available with upholstered seat pads. The seat pads are separate molded plywood shells padded with 3/4" of foam wrapped with fabric or leather. The upholstered pads are fabricated according to Norman Cherner's original drawings and specifications. Chairs and stools can also be ordered with a seat and back pad or the seat pad only.
The "classic stained walnut" option have a stain applied to both the beech core and the walnut face veneer which gives the product a uniform walnut color (very little contrast in color between the beech core and the walnut veneer). The "natural clear stained walnut" option have only a clear finish applied, which emphasizes the contrast between the exposed beech core and walnut face veneer.

Norman Cherner
Considered a pioneer in molded plywood, Norman Cherner used this method to create a line of seating for Plycraft that led to his famous Cherner Chair. Plycraft produced this chair after telling Norman that his plans had been scrapped and took credit for his design. The chair became famous after it was depicted by Norman Rockwell in the painting "The Artist At Work."
Cherner's environmental philosophy is that you will never find a Cherner Chair product in a landfill. Cherner designs are cherished and handed down to future generations.
