Designer Tom Sachs showcases the release photos of the iconic Shop Chair -- this time, it arrives in an all-new colorway option entitled 'Olive Drab.' It originally made its debut during Art Basel Miami 2019 at the Salon 94 booth. The Shop Chair is constructed from high-quality materials, spotlighting premium maple plywood before it is held together with the assembly of rubber flex-mounts and stainless steel screws.
The overall weight of the chair is about 15.5 pounds and it measures out to be 33.5" by 18.5" by 18.5" wide. The olive drab hue is showcased throughout the entire chair, especially at the surface, leaving some areas in a visually raw wooden look. The chair is rounded out with hand-engravings of edition plates.
