Designed by Peter Ghyczy - cold war furniture, uber trendy 40 years on

An original prototype of this classic 60s design will be a highlight of the Cold War Modern exhibition at the V & A (Victoria and Albert museum in London). Designed by Peter Ghyczy, the chair was eventually mass produced in East Germany and is one of the few design products of the Cold War era, sold in both East and West. Celebrating its 40th Anniversary this year the chair is now produced by Felix Ghyczy, the designer's son. Suitable for use in the garden. Only available for sale online in yellow 09
