Wing Back Armchairs by Tom Dixon for George Smith, 2007, Set of 2

Stunning pair of fully restored original edition 2007 Tom Dixon George Smith wingback armchairs RRP £16,000 Inspired by the traditional 17th century Wingback and balloon-back archetypes, first prototyped as one of several British club chairs destined for the infamous Shoreditch House Members Club – a place where fun and work, drinking and eating merge seamlessly. The original idea was to design 6 contemporary mismatching archetypical club chairs, full size silhouettes were sketched on oversize bits of wallpaper and cardboard maquettes cobbled up with glue guns before being prototyped by master upholsterer George Smith. The Wingback was the clear winner and made its debut in 2007, remastered for maximum comfort and engineered efficiency.
