Russell Woodard Spun Fiberglass Dining Chairs

Overview

An iconic pair of Spun Fiberglass Dining Chairs designed by Russell Woodard. Introduced during the mid-century period, these sculptural chairs have become celebrated examples of American design, recognised for their intricate woven fibreglass construction and distinctive hourglass pedestal bases. Their airy silhouette and timeless form make them highly sought-after additions to both indoor and outdoor settings.

Sculptural Design

Characterised by their open lattice construction and elegant flowing lines, these chairs perfectly capture the optimism and innovation of the Mid-Century Modern era. The spun fibreglass creates a visually lightweight appearance while offering impressive durability, making them equally suited to patios, sunrooms, gardens or contemporary interiors. Their sculptural presence allows them to function as both practical seating and striking design objects.

Design & Craftsmanship

Designed by Russell Woodard, a pioneer in outdoor furniture design, the Spun Fiberglass collection became one of the most recognisable furniture ranges of the 1950s and 1960s. Manufactured using an innovative spun fibreglass technique, these chairs demonstrate the era's fascination with new materials and expressive forms. Today they remain highly desirable collector's design pieces, admired for their craftsmanship, durability and enduring aesthetic appeal.
