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 did, the essential challenge of deriving form from function.

Constructed of hard white maple veneer strips, laminated 6 to 9 thick with high-bonding urea glue. Thermo-set assembly glue provides structural rigidity without the need for metal connectors. Chair back flexes for added comfort. To maximize tension compression, limited assembly glue is used in woven seat: weaves flex in unison for spring-like comfort. Clear plastic glides with matte frost finish included.

The underside of each piece is embossed with the Knoll logo and Frank Gehrys signature. GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified®. Sat in a climate controlled loft condo unit since 1997.

Over time some of the "ribbons" have separated. Therefore, the chair requires minor maintenance. I have one other chair that needs more repair (gluing of the ribbons) before I list it. But, please know there are two.
