ABOUT PRODUCTID 14542
The upholstered chair type 200-244, produced by Słupskie Fabryki Mebli in Poland in the mid-1970s, exemplifies the rational simplicity of Polish modernism. Its construction features sturdy, turned beechwood legs, stained in a natural alder tone and finished with a subtle shellac polish that enhances the unique wood grain. The seat and backrest, both finished in a cool, dark graphite grey, are covered with a matte, quilted textile featuring a gentle, regular pattern. Comfort is ensured by wave springs combined with polyurethane foam—an innovation in Polish furniture of the period. There are no unnecessary embellishments; precise joinery with invisible fittings underlines the functional intent of the design. The chair is in restored condition, free of visible signs of use or discolouration, presenting itself in outstanding shape. Type 200-244 carries the quiet resonance of Polish domestic life in the 1970s: dignified in its modesty and representative of the democratization of design. Its balanced, understated silhouette and harmonious proportions echo an era when modern materials, like polyurethane foam, began to redefine household standards of comfort. Beech legs, the restrained geometry, and graphite upholstery gently hint at the functional beauty of the era—quietly affirming that comfort and practicality can be achieved without ornate touches. The chair may be paired with a minimalist
