In the 1960s, Warren Platner transformed steel wire into a sculptural furniture collection, creating what is now considered a design icon of the modern era.
The Platner collection's unique harmonious forms are produced by welding steel wire rods to circular frames, producing a moire effect and capturing the decorative, gentle, graceful quality that Platner sought to achieve.
All metal components are finished in bright nickel with a clear lacquer protective coating. The Platner collection also includes a side chair, lounge chair and stool.
Construction notes:
Vertical steel wire rods feature bright nickel finish with clear lacquer protection. Top is 3/8" thick tempered glass.
Dimensions:
53 3/4" w 27.5" h
Design:
Warren Platner, 1966.
