Marble Wing: Iconic Chaise Longue by Draenert

For its 50th anniversary, Draenert decided to relaunch a splendid chair that is now part of the Art Edition of Draenert. The architect and designer Hadi Teherani shows how Marble Wing has been able to transfer the ancient cultural history of marble into modern design.

This charming chair features the purest stone transformed into a sculpture that is simultaneously functional as chaise longue. The detail that stands out, despite its weight, is an unexpectedly light, curvy profile. Hadi Teherani used the purest marble in the world - Carrara marble - to produce a sustainable and charismatic project.

The Draenert brand displays pieces like this from its Art Edition in prestigious museums like the Victoria & Albert-Museum in London or the Metropolitan Art Museum in New York. These objects go beyond the standards of conventional furniture and become important witnesses of the search for artistic design in the post modern world.
