Henry van de Velde designed the armchair in 1897 at the onset of the Art Nouveau movement that was characterized by floral motifs and sinuous lines. The chair's lack of ornamentation and its elegant strong design places it far ahead of its time. The artist himself loved the creation: he lived with examples of this model for many years. The chair is known to have been designed for various important interiors by van de Velde and only about a dozen examples survive today.
