Cherner Chair Company

Founded in 1999

After listening to countless requests from fellow architects to see his father's designs reissued, Benjamin joined with his brother Thomas to form the Cherner Chair Company in 1999. Since then the Cherner Chair Company has brought back into production many of Norman Cherner's most popular designs utilizing his original drawings and specifications. The reissued designs are manufactured with the same attention to detail found in the original hand made classics. Cherner Chair products are made in The USA and available from The Cherner Chair Company and through dealers worldwide.

In addition to reissuing Norman Cherner's molded plywood chairs and stools, the Cherner Chair Company has introduced new designs by Benjamin Cherner.

The Cherner Chair Company is the sole licensor of Norman Cherner and Benjamin Cherner designs.
