Fiberglass Arm Shell Chair JADEITE
The Shell Chair is a representative mid-century product made of FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) that was once designed by Charles Eames. The Fiberglass Arm Shell Chair by MODERNICA is a modern take on the original Arm Shell Chair, brought back to life with a production method that could be described as perfect. The Shell Chair, one of Eames's masterpieces, was made using FRP, which had just been developed at the time, allowing for the creation of free curves, and was highly durable and easy to mass-produce. It was also possible to combine various legs depending on the purpose, making it a masterpiece of the 20th century with an unparalleled idea. The Modernica Fiberglass Shell Chair was made by purchasing the molds and machines of Zenith, which had been contracted to produce the Shell Chair since the 1950s, and using the world's only specialized equipment that was still in place at the time, and the production methods used at the time, the company's skilled craftsmen are hand-making each one by one. There is no doubt that this is the closest product to the original of the current Shell Chairs. By combining a wide variety of shell/seat colors with approximately 20 different base/leg types, you can use it in any scene or lifestyle, such as in the dining room, living room, counter, or study. Jedi, which can be said to be the representative color of MODERNICA shell chairs, was created with the image of "jade". It is a very beautiful color that is transparent and shows through the fiberglass when held up to the light. In the United States from around the 1950s to the 1980s, this color was widely seen not only in furniture but also in cars, room wallpaper, tableware, etc., and it is a popular color that represents the American mid-century.
