The piece, in detail
The design

Space age, and still stacking

The Panto Pop is a low, moulded lounge chair from Verner Panton's 1969 design. These were manufactured circa 1999 by Innovation Design Studio in Denmark. It is an iconic space age design, and the chairs stack.

Construction

Heavy grade resin, a glossy grey

The shell is moulded from a heavy-grade plastic resin and finished in a glossy grey pigment. The manufacturer's original adhesive label is still affixed to the base, carrying the designer's signature and the production series data. Both chairs are recorded as 1999.

Condition

Bright outside, honest inside

The outside is bright and still glossy, with minor surface wear. The inside shows wear commensurate with age and with the stacking this design invites. There are no cracks and no loss to the rim or to the chair itself, and all of it is set out in the written condition report.

Care and delivery

Delivery and returns

We deliver nationwide with a specialist furniture courier, blanket wrapped, carried in and placed in the room you choose. Within North East England we deliver ourselves, usually inside the week, and collection is welcome by arrangement.

If a piece arrives and does not suit the room, tell us within fourteen days. We will arrange collection and refund what you paid. All we ask is that the piece comes back in the condition it arrived.

Care

Vintage furniture is straightforward to live with. Keep pieces out of direct sun and away from radiators, wipe with a barely damp cloth, and wax timber once a year. Every piece comes with care notes written for its own materials.

Viewings

The collection is kept in North East England and viewings are by appointment, most days including weekends. Bring the room's measurements and take your time with the piece.

Questions

Can both chairs be bought together

Two are recorded, both from 1999. Tell us in your enquiry whether you want the pair or one and we will confirm what can be supplied.

What condition is the inside in

The inside shows wear commensurate with age and with the stacking of this chair design. The outside is bright and still glossy with minor surface wear. There are no cracks and no loss to the rim or to the chair itself.

Is the original label still on it

Yes. The manufacturer's original adhesive label is affixed to the base, carrying the designer's signature and the production series data. We photograph it as part of the condition report.

How does buying work

Every piece is one of one, so there is no basket. Send an enquiry and we will reply the same day where we can, usually with more photographs and the condition report. When you are ready, payment is by bank transfer and we arrange delivery.

Can you hold a piece

Yes, for forty eight hours while you measure the room. Beyond that we take a small refundable deposit and mark the piece reserved until you decide.

Can we see a piece first

Yes. Viewings are by appointment in North East England, most days including weekends. Bring the room's measurements.

What condition are the pieces in

Ready for daily use unless the listing says otherwise. Every piece is checked before it is listed, photographed honestly with any wear shown, and sold with a written condition report. Anything repaired or replaced is stated plainly on the piece's page.

Do you buy furniture

We do. If you have a piece by one of the designers of the last century, or think you might, send photographs through the selling page and we will come back with a view and, where it suits the collection, an offer.

Collector words

The chair arrived exactly as described, and better than the photographs, which were the reason I rang. The paperwork that came with it answered every question I had.
A collector, Ball chair, delivered to Edinburgh
They talked me out of the piece I wanted and into the piece the room needed. Right on both counts.
A first time buyer, Sideboard, County Durham
Solid, clean and honestly described. The condition report matched the piece down to the small marks it listed.
A returning collector, Nesting tables, York
