Mid Century Modern Lucite and Chrome Cantilever Armchair, C. 1970.

Offered by: 2220 Antiques

Description
This iconic armchair perfectly captures the sleek, Space Age luxury of the 1970s, heavily reflecting the pioneering aesthetic of Charles Hollis Jones. The chair is constructed with a continuous, heavy-gauge tubular chrome-plated steel frame in an elegant cantilever configuration that offers a subtle, comfortable flex.
The seat and backrest are formed from a single, thick sheet of molded transparent Lucite (acrylic), meticulously contoured to flow seamlessly within the metallic boundary. The polished chrome tubing loops upward to create integrated open track armrests secured with sleek rivet hardware, grounding the piece on a clean, stabilizing sled base. By utilizing transparent acrylic alongside highly reflective chrome, the design achieves a "floating" architectural presence that defined high-end 1970s California modernism.
