Name:Argyle
Designer: Charles Rennie Mackintosh(English)
Release Year: 1898-1899
This work is the first high-backed chair designed by designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh who is inspired by the arts and crafts movement, emphasizing natural and organic forms. The Argyle is symbolized by an iron rod, and the rear pillar is used to support the oval headrest with a very distinctive shape of the fly swallow. Without armrests at the sides, it is often used at the dining table. By making Argyle, Mackintosh hopes to create a smaller and more intimate environment for people who have dinner together.
