Scale model of the iconic Laminated Chair by Grete Jalk, designed in 1963.

This chair is Jalk's best known work which won first prize in a competition organised by the British newspaper the 'Daily Mail'. Unfortunately it never went into production and only a few pieces currently exist of the full scale chair which explains the high prices it has fetched at international auction. The Laminated Chair marks a period in time where designers started to experiment with moulded plywood.

As part of the Vitra Design Museum collection these miniature editions of classic chairs all form part of modern furniture design history.

The construction, materials and colours correspond to the historical Vitra Design Museum collection originals, right down to the last detail. Because they are so true to the originals, the miniatures are not only valuable collector's items, but also ideal illustrative materials for universities, design colleges and architects.
