Originally designed in 1967 by celebrated French designer Pierre Paulin, the Tongue Chair remains one of the most iconic sculptural lounge chairs of the 20th century. Now part of the permanent collection at MoMA, its fluid, organic shape reflects Paulin’s avant-garde approach to comfort and style. This vintage example has been newly reupholstered in a plush, soft jade mohair by the Romo Group, adding depth and richness to its already sinuous silhouette. Resting low to the ground with a wave like curve, the chair invites a relaxed reclined posture while making a bold statement in any space.
