Marcel Breuer, a Ventris lounge chair in birch ply made by Windmill Furniture for Isokon Plus, with maker’s label under the arm, height 77cm, width 77cm, depth 87cm
Very good condition, light signs of use, some surface scratches and rubbing to edges of ply.
In 1936, 2 chairs of this design were commissioned by the Ventris family from Jack Pritchard’s Isokon. In the late 1990’s, these original chairs were found to still be in the possession of the family and tracings and measurements were made from the chairs. In around 2000, Windmill Furniture produced a small number of chairs to this design under the Isokon Plus name. Recently VG & P have re-issued the design for Isokon Plus. The chair here is one of the earlier Windmill Furniture productions, with maker’s label under the arm
