Tecta Armchair by Eric Lyons for Packet Furniture, 1940s

An Eric Lyons armchair in the modernist style. The Tecta chair dates from the end of the Utility period and demonstrates awareness of the flowing lines of much contemporary continental furniture, particularly Scandinavian and Italian. It outlasted the Utility scheme, when its manufacture was taken over by E.E. Kahn and Co. Ltd., of Great Yarmouth. A couple of Packet Furniture Chairs are listed by the VA. This one benefits from full reupholstery including webbing of the seat back by Mark our upholsterer. The fabric is a green textured woven fabric from a small West Country supplier which fits the era so well. The steamed bentwood frame sits firm with day to day marks but nothing nasty or off putting. A superbly designed armchair c.1940. Billy Hunt has successfully focused on British furniture and lighting since 2014 and always has an interesting ever changing selection of carefully chosen pieces from the early 1800s to late 1970s.
