The Stylish Cherner Chair: Since 1958

Weisshouse is proud to carry Cherner Chairs. The original, now iconic molded plywood chair was designed by Norman Cherner and just happens to be a favorite design staple among clients and designers.

"Norman Cherner's furniture designs include the "multi-flex" modular storage system, the "Konwiser Line" of furniture and lighting, and molded plywood seating for Plycraft which he designed in 1958. The molded plywood ‘Cherner Chair' became his most recognized design and is found in furniture collections worldwide." (www.chernerchair.com)

Today, the Cherner legacy is carried on by Benjamin and Thomas Cherner. "After listening to countless requests from fellow Architects to see his father's designs reissued, Benjamin decided to join with his brother Thomas to form the Cherner Chair Company in 1999. Since then the Cherner Chair Company has brought back into production many of Norman Cherner's most popular designs. Utilizing his original drawings and specifications, the reissued designs are manufactured with the same attention to detail found in the original hand made classics. Cherner Chair products are now distributed through dealers worldwide." (www.chernerchair.com)
