Modern Lounge Chair by Willem Penaat for Metz & Co, 1930s

Very rare modernist lounge chair designed by Willem Penaat in 1935 for Metz & Co, Netherlands.
Metz & Co was the leader in the Netherlands in the field of home furnishings and modern design. They worked with great designers like Gerrit Rietveld, Elmar Berkovich, Bart van der Leck etc. Willem Penaat (1875-1957) worked as a furniture and interior designer for the upscale Metz & Co store for over 25 years
The chair has a geometric shape with an angled backrest. The two runner legs are in solid black stained oak wood. The fabric which is not original anymore, is in beige/ocher yellow.
It is in good condition. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
from
misattribution
