Vintage Design
The original models were produced in small quantities, due to the high production costs, and are therefore quite rare. The FM series is designed in modular fashion, multiple parts can be joined in order to get to a sofa or to separate them into armchairs.
The FM50 chairs are characterized by a very strong forward frame, the front legs in 45 degrees compared to the back legs. The teak multiplex shells are machine bent and affixed to the legs by bolts. The inner part consists of multiple elastic straps are affixed to the wood frame. The pillows lay on top of the straps.
In this specific example, it concerns an FM50 lounge chair without armrests and an FM52 with a right armrest.
The chairs are upholstered in black Kvadrat Tonus.
