Rapson Cave Chair

Designed by Ralph Rapson'2012
Made in the USA

Going through the impeccable furniture sketches of midcentury architect Ralph Rapson could possibly be one of the best ways to spend a cold winter afternoon in Minnesota. We found his Cave Chair illustration and immediately thought it would be a great collaboration piece that fit the aesthetic of Loll's modern outdoor furniture. Ralph originally conceived this chair in 1943 as plywood with a cushion, but it was never actually produced. Part of Loll's Rapson® Collection, this perfectly oversized, futuristic, comfortable and fun, modern Cave Chair will induce hours of conversation – whether you're sitting in it or just walking by. Named after the earth-excavated Cave House that Ralph designed with Dave Runnells in 1939, it, too, was never built.

Features

• Rapson Collection
• Available with or without Optional Ottoman
• Available in various colors

No Maintenance/Weatherproof:

• Leave Loll products outside year-round
• Loll never needs to be painted or stained and cleans easily with a soft brush, a natural cleaner, or a power wash

UV INFORMATION:

• Loll products are made with partially recycled and fully recyclable material
• Milk jugs are used due to their lack of pigment so Loll's vibrant colors can be created
• As Loll material is a post-consumer recycled material, the medium to create the material does inevitably fluctuate
• Although we do continuously strive for the best consistency possible, material color and texture may slightly vary from sheet good to sheet good and thus product to product
• There is ultraviolet (UV) stability in Loll material. Loll products are manufactured with a highly weatherable HDPE sheet
• Loll's post consumer resin includes a superior UV additive designed for plastics that improves exterior durability, greatly reducing characteristic surface degradation caused by sunlight and other UV light sources
• Pigments / color concentrates are also added that are formulated with the best weathering pigments available in the market in a particular color-space

RICHLITE:

• This unique and environmentally-conscious paper composite is used in some Loll pieces. Made with resin-saturated paper, Richlite requires no maintenance and may patina over time

LOW-IMPACT MANUFACTURING:

• Loll was conceived as a way to repurpose excess skate ramp material. Founded on principles of efficient and responsible use/reuse of manufacturing material, Loll products are fabricated using lean manufacturing techniques

MATERIALS

100% Recycled and Recyclable:

• Their material is recycled and recyclable high-density polyethylene (HDPE), primarily from milk jugs.
• Approximately 8 milk jugs are reclaimed per pound.
