Hans Könecke Lounge Chair for Tecta – Germany, 1960s
Mid Century Lounge Chair by Hans Könecke for Tecta | Rare German Design 1960s | Black Corduroy & Leather | Chrome Frame | Vintage Armchair
A rare and highly distinctive Mid-Century Modern lounge chair designed by Hans Könecke and manufactured by Tecta in Germany during the 1960s.
This exceptional chair combines a beautifully sculptural chrome-plated tubular steel frame with a generously proportioned upholstered seat and backrest. The deep black ribbed/cotton corduroy-style upholstery creates a sophisticated, tactile appearance, while the genuine black leather armrests add an elegant contrast and emphasize the chair’s high-quality construction.
The design is characteristic of the refined German Mid-Century Modern aesthetic: clean architectural lines, a cantilever-inspired structure, minimal ornamentation and a strong focus on comfort and functionality. The polished chrome base gives the chair a light, almost floating appearance, while the substantial upholstered cushions provide excellent support.
The combination of the black upholstery, real leather armrests and bright chrome frame makes this a particularly versatile statement piece for a Mid-Century, modernist, Bauhaus-inspired or contemporary interior.
