Description
Some of the rarest of the Walter Lamb bronze designs, these long Benches adjust to become chaise lounge with 5 different angle positions utilizing a simple adjustible hook and bar system. At the end of WW2, Walter Lamb was stationed in Hawaii. There he conceived the idea of using reclaimed surplus brass tubing from the naval yards to design the framework for outdoor furniture. He used cotton cording to form the support body. A few years later, his designs became part of the Brown and Jordan line and to his chagrin, by the early1960s, the cotton cording was replaced by plastic cording. All of our Walter Lamb pieces are newly restored with cotton cording treated to resist mold and mildew. SEAT HEIGHT 18 in. (45.7 cm).
