Lupina Chair, Designed by Niko Kralj, Produced by Stol Kamnik in the Late 1950s

Niko Kralj is a renowned figure in Yugoslavian and Slovenian industrial design, leaving a significant legacy as a pioneer celebrated for his focus on functionality, simplicity, and timeless elegance. Stol Kamnik, the esteemed Yugoslavian furniture manufacturer, produced Kralj's designs with the highest standards of craftsmanship. Known for their exceptional quality, Stol Kamnik’s collaboration with Kralj resulted in furniture pieces that not only served functional purposes but also held deep cultural and historical significance.

In the early 1950s, Kralj conceived the idea of using two pieces of plywood to create the ergonomic "Lupina" chair, a design based on a single core element. This concept has since been applied in offices, homes, and public spaces, taking on various forms, applications, and frames over the decades.

Today, the Lupina Chair stands as an iconic representation of Kralj’s approach to furniture design, characterized by bold contours and smooth curves that make it instantly recognizable as a true design classic.

The chair is original from the 1950s, healthy, and clean.
