Due to its popularity it was produced in a first series of glossy lacquered hard polyethylene in 1991 (as this one is) and later in a more soft foam version. The glossy white lacquered finish  chair was a premium edition produced by Moroso in the early 2000s.\u003cbr\u003eWhile the standard polyethylene Big Easy is \"mass-dyed\" (the color is part of the plastic itself and has a matte look), the lacquered version is a distinct, more high-end product:\u003cbr\u003eThis chair has Arad's and Moroso's name embossed to thye verso and the date stamp from September 2000, which places it exactly in the period when Moroso was expanding the \"Spring Collection\" to include these more sculptural, light-reflective finishes. \u003cbr\u003eThe chair is in good condition and is ready to grace your space!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRon Arad experiments with materials and technology as well as the re-conception of objects' form and structure.\u003cbr\u003eRon Arad was awarded the Royal Designer for Industry in 2002 and the London Design Medal in 2011. He was Professor of Design at the Hochschule in Vienna from 1994 to 1997, and later Professor of Design Products at the Royal College of Art in London up until 2009, when he was made Professor Emeritus. In 2013 he was elected as a Royal Academician by the Royal Academy of Art in London.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Fine Art \u0026 Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45808368943290,"sku":null,"price":3350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0828\/7801\/files\/Untitled-2_e28b93b6-767e-420e-88b1-3c8c82de2b78.jpg?v=1777312865","url":"https:\/\/bloomsburypdx.com\/products\/big-easy-ron-arad-design-for-moroso-italian-postmodern-white-lounge-chair-1990","provider":"BLOOMSBURY FINE ART \u0026 ANTIQUES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
