Lot 959c: * Tom Dixon Wingback chair
Sold for: £210
Tom Dixon Wingback chair Inspired by 17th-century English wingback and balloon-back archetypes originally developed for the Shoreditch House Members Club, the Tom Dixon Wingback Chair is a contemporary masterpiece defined by its expressive, sweeping curves and rakish silhouette. This handcrafted piece features a sinuously curved, high backrest that provides acoustic protection and ergonomic support, blending British tradition with modern industrial production. This specific configuration is upholstered in black Tonus fabric—a highly elastic wool blend that flawlessly contours to the chair’s complex geometry—and is supported by solid black ash (black-stained oak) legs for a sophisticated, monochromatic finish. Standing as a functional sculpture fit for exclusive clubs or refined homes, the chair measures 74 cm in width, 97 cm in depth, and 128 cm in height. (SC9)
