________________YOU WILL PROBABLY NEVER SEE THESE AGAIN_________
1 - MAL 1956 chair by Bob Copray for Mal Furniture (an EAMES tribute ) made from PE plastic in aluminum mold! For outdoor use.
The DUTCH Company is long out of business and these are hard to find ANYWHERE, let alone USA!
Used but in excellent condition for it's age - some scraping around edges as to be expected
Here’s the Mal 1956 Lounger - “The 1956 is the first product of Mal, a young Eindhoven(NL) based label by Bob Copray and Niels Wildenberg. The Mal 1956 is a plastic (PE), rotational molded product, which is extremely suited for outdoor use. The chair has an ergonomic design. It is solid but it is very comfortable. It has been designed with a subtle drainage system to prevent stagnant water from collecting in the seat.
The Mal 1956 can be cleaned using water along with common household cleaning products.” As described in the NYTimes - “Coyly called Mal 1956 — “mal” is the Dutch word for “mold,” and it also means “silly,” Mr. Wildenberg said — the chair is made of polyethylene powder that has been heated and rotated in an aluminum mold.”
