We have to assume (as the label is no longer intact) that these were produced in the 1960s by the celebrated South African maker Frystark. Originally known as the \u003cem\u003eAntoinette by Frystark\u003c\/em\u003e, it remains one of the most recognisable local designs of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"345\" data-end=\"585\"\u003eThe sculptural fiberglass outer shell has been updated, giving the form sharp clarity again. The chair rests on its classic half-moon beechwood base, a signature detail that grounds the bold pod shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"587\" data-end=\"853\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eNow fully reupholstered in a richly textured, high-end Hertex fabric mixed hues of green, black, chartreuse, and off-while (Forest), the seat feels both contemporary and true to the gentle curves of the original design. The fabric retails in excess of R1000 per meter. A beautifully restored piece that celebrates the craftsmanship and design legacy of Frystark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 115%;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Century Gothic',sans-serif;\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: 115%;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Century Gothic',sans-serif;\"\u003eRestored, upholstered, and in great condition, ready to bring new life to its next home.
