Charles Furey pioneered the innovative approach to plastic polypropylene furniture both locally in Australia and New Zealand, but also on a global scale. He designed and produced the first one-piece polypropylene chair, the Integra, which many great makers and designers had been working towards in the years prior.
The ‘Hobnob’ chair continues this exploration of plastics, combining a moulded tub style seat with a swivelling metal ‘tulip’ base. The result is a comfortable and functional chair, that makes a bold sculptural statement in any contemporary interior.
