Prapuolenis' Chair

Education
Lithuanian furniture designer Jonas Prapuolenis (1900–1980). After graduating from the Kaunas School of Art in 1928, Prapuolenis furthered his knowledge of interior design in Paris, and established a furniture studio in Kaunas during the interwar period. By designing mostly one-off furniture pieces, he sought to combine functionality, modernity of form and the Lithuanian spirit. The chairs that Prapuolenis designed and decorated with Lithuanian folk motifs won the gold medal at the International Exposition of Art and Technology in Modern Life in Paris in 1937.
