Norman Cherner studied and taught at the Columbia University Fine Arts Department, and was an instructor at the Museum of Modern Art in New York from 1947 to 1949. At the same time he also began his private practice, embarking on a lifetime exploration of disciplinary design. Cherner's sons, Benjamin and Thomas, formed the Cherner Chair Company in 1999 to manufacture and market some of the most influential and well recognized designs spanning almost 50 years. Like the 1958 original, the Cherner stacking chair utilizes a molded veneer seat with a unique construction of laminated plywood in graduated thickness. The seat and back are designed using a single shell connected by a slim and sturdy throat with slender metal legs. COM upholstery options available by special order.
