A beautifully crafted British modernist armchair designed by Dennis Young for George Stone, dating to around 1960.
This striking piece showcases the understated elegance of British mid-century design, with gently sculpted arms, tapered legs, and a well-balanced stance that gives the chair both visual lightness and structural confidence. The solid afromosia wood frame is rich in tone and fine in grain, offering the warmth and depth that makes this timber so prized in 20th-century furniture.
The chair has been newly upholstered in soft cream boucle, giving it a contemporary lift while remaining completely sympathetic to the original design. The contrast between the warm wood and textured upholstery highlights the architectural lines of the frame and makes this chair feel both timeless and resolutely modern.
In excellent vintage condition, this is a versatile statement piece – equally at home as a reading chair, bedroom accent, or as part of a considered living space. A rare opportunity to acquire a refined example of British mid-century craftsmanship by an increasingly sought-after designer.
