The Womb chair, with its matching ottoman, was designed in 1948, part of Saarinen's breakthrough seating collection. The Womb's steel rod base and polished-chrome finish, combined with its frame upholstered in fabric—all covering a fiberglass shell, highlights Saarinen' s brilliant design aesthetic and his architectural skills. In addition to its unique look, the chair is quite comfortable. Called the Womb for a reason, the chair is designed to facilitate a relaxed sitting posture which in turn provides total comfort and a sense of security. This is a High quality replica of the original Eero Saarinen Womb Chair.
