Created during the height of the functionalist movement, the chair combines practical outdoor durability with the light and elegant character that defines Frank's work. Rather than using chromium plating, Frank chose a warm lacquered finish, giving the design a softer and more inviting appearance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe chair is crafted from black lacquered iron and features an openwork mesh seat and back. This construction provides visual lightness while allowing air and light to pass through the design, a principle that Frank often embraced throughout his furniture. The simple geometric lines and balanced proportions give the chair a timeless quality that remains relevant today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOriginally conceived as garden furniture, the Model 591 works equally well indoors, where its sculptural metal frame adds a distinctive Scandinavian modern character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeat height is approximately \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e15.7 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, overall height approximately \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e31.1 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, width approximately \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e24 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, depth approximately \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e25.6 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, seat depth approximately \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e18.9 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and armrest height approximately \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e24.4 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition is good vintage.
