Description: Striking rope chairs by Maruni from the 1950s. This pair of original pieces features a rope seat and back with the original corded nylon rope and ebonized beechwood frame. It retains its original metal label. The painted surface is in great condition. It's light yet sturdy build comes from its construction utilizing tension and compression and hidden glueless Japanese joinery. These chairs will make a statement. The artistry with the routing of the single length of rope for each chair makes them together a conversation starter. These chairs would look amazing in a Mid-Century Modern or Asian-influenced context. While they are fairly small and low to the ground, they are stand-out precisely because they are so unique. Note: The cushions pictured can be provided with the chairs. They are not made by Maruni.Taken from the World Wide Web: "Maruni Wood Industry traces its origins to 1928 Hiroshima, Japan, and was a key promoter of Western-style furniture in its home country during the post-war years. The company set several benchmarks in the speed and precision of its assembly line. Maruni continues to expand the technical and artistic boundaries of lightweight wood furniture to this day."
