Designed by Harry Bertoia in 1952.
The Asymmetric Lounge is the most sculptural of Harry Bertoia’s 1952 wire chair collection. The chair never made it beyond a prototype until 2005, when Knoll, with help from Bertoia’s family, put the design into full production. Harry Bertoia’s wire collection is among the most recognised achievements of mid-century modern design and a proud part of the Knoll heritage. Sculptural, airy, and breathtaking in shape and form, the Asymmetric chaise is considered to be a masterpiece of mid-century American furniture. The frame and basket are constructed of welded steel rods. The frame is available in chrome or white rilsan finish, only. The upholstered cover is available in a range of fabrics.
