The Wishbone chair by California designer, Arthur Espenet, c.1970s, USA, is a masterclass in innovation, crafted from Shedua wood and a tan leather web seat. Moving away from traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery, Espenet engineered a streamlined design that allowed for a remarkable two-and-a-half-day production time. Its silhouette is defined by front legs that sweep upward to meet the back rail, creating its namesake profile, while the tapered, base-heavy legs provide a graceful stability.
Underside is marked Espenet - 7503.
