Often referred to as Surrealist, this hand-shaped chair is one of the artist's best-known bodies of work. As with his architectural drawings, Friedeberg tends to reject and oppose modern designs or what is commonly accepted as good taste. With its conical base and clear finish, the chair rejects the works of his contemporary furniture designers. Friedeberg introduced the hand as a recurrent theme in several of his works.
