Due to his contribution to and execllence in furniture and interior design, the Czech Republic now host an anual award in his name. Our H-296 armchair was made during the 1940's and has since been fully refurbished in a beautiful grey woven fabric. This item is rare and unique and a true invesment piece. We have the chair on display in our Parsons Green showroom in London if you wish to view prior to purchase.
