This chair represents the first recorded example of the Long Chair to be ordered from George Nakashima. This version varies from later models in several ways including a thinner width webbing that is used and sea grass detailing. This chair is the only known example of a piece of Nakashima furniture to use this thinner type of webbing and sea grass detailing is used only on the earliest examples of the Long Chair. A rare and exceptional example of Nakashima's early work.
