Strength and beauty
Although a pioneer in prefab housing, Norman Cherner is best known for this chair. Constructed of laminated plywood of graduating thicknesses, from 5-ply at the seat edge to 15-ply at the slender waist, the Cherner Chair (1958) possesses exceptional structural strength and dramatic sculptural beauty. The armchair version features a single solid piece of bent beech that wraps around the sitter. This is the authentic Cherner Chair made by the Cherner Chair Company.
