This armchair is a classic piece of Mid-Century Modern furniture by the Australian manufacturer Don Rex. Based in Brisbane, Don Rex was renowned during the 1950s and 60s for high-quality craftsmanship and sleek, sculptural designs that rivaled European imports.
The chair features a solid teak timber frame characterised by distinctive, "paddle" or "cigar" shaped arms. The open-frame design gives it a light, airy aesthetic despite its sturdy construction.
It utilises a low-profile, reclining stance with tapered "atomic" legs that were a hallmark of the era.
The smooth joinery and the ergonomic curve of the backrest. Don Rex pieces are highly collectible today because of their durability and timeless "organic modern" look.
We have two available for custom order and a matching three seater lounge, contact us if you want the whole set.
