The Knoll Cross Check Chair came from a simple squiggle on a sheet of paper and is now one of the most distinctive and unusual pieces of furniture in the extensive Knoll catalogue.
Inspired by the surprising strength of the apple crates he played on as a child, Frank Gehry created his thoroughly original collection of bentwood furniture. The ribbon-like designs transcend the conventions of style by exploring, as the great modernists of the 20th Century did, the essential challenge of deriving form from function. A sculptural masterpiece this is truly one for collectors and fans of Frank Gehry's unique style.
Materials: Made from hard maple veneers. All wood grains run in same direction for resilience. Backs on all chairs flex with curved lumbar support for comfort. Clear plastic glides with a matte frost finish. All chairs carry a stamped Frank Gehry signature and date of production stamp of authenticity.
Dimensions: Height: 85cm x Width: 72cm x Depth: 72cm (Seat height: 46cm)
