Los Angeles-based design and furniture company Modernica, in collaboration with Canadian high-end sportswear brand Reigning Champ, unveiled two fiberglass shell chairs lacquered in black. Originally designed in 1948, Fiberglass Shell Chair became a cult over years. Many companies tried their hands and introduced their respective versions of the chair to pay homage to the mid-century modern furniture design.
Modernica x Reigning Champ introduced their own version of a fiberglass shell chair in the year 2021, but it had an all-white finish. Two years later, this collaboration reimagined the fiberglass molded ‘Arm Shell Rocker’ and ‘Side Shell Chair’ in black; and it is fabulous. The all-black finish draws inspiration from Reigning Champ’s monochromatic signature basketball.
Handcrafted in Modernica’s LA factory, the fiberglass shell chair features a 100 percent full-grain aniline leather upholstery that looks sexy and sublime. To complement the leather, the powder-coated metal hardware formulates the base of the furniture. The 16.5-inch seat height and an H base frame make it an ergonomic option.
