A single continuous form that carries weight without back legs. It was inspired by a stacked pile of plastic buckets and became the world's first all-plastic, single-piece cantilever chair. Nothing in the profile is a join.
This one is dyed-through polypropylene, strong and flexible, with a matte finish in sky blue. It was purchased as new with labels. We offer it as attributed to Verner Panton with the edition unconfirmed, and we say nothing beyond that.
An untouched original, never refinished and never repaired. The colour runs through the material rather than sitting on top of it, so light contact marks do not read as they would on a painted surface. The example you take is photographed and described in full before you commit.
Untouched original.
Purchased as new with labels.
Attributed to Verner Panton. The edition is unconfirmed and we do not state it as fact.
Inspected in our care and recorded as an untouched original.
Four examples available, offered at a price on request.

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.
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.
It is offered as attributed to Verner Panton, with the edition unconfirmed. The chairs were purchased as new with labels, and whatever labels and marks are present on the example you take are recorded in its condition report. We say nothing beyond what we can show.
A soft damp cloth is enough for everyday marks. Avoid abrasives and solvent cleaners, which burnish a matte surface. Care notes written for the chair's own materials come with it.
Four examples are available. Say how many you need in your enquiry and we will confirm what can be supplied together, with photographs of each before you commit.
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.

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.
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.
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.
They talked me out of the piece I wanted and into the piece the room needed. Right on both counts.
Solid, clean and honestly described. The condition report matched the piece down to the small marks it listed.
