The chair is made of aluminium and fiberglass is to set go for between $1.6 million and $2.4 million at auction next month at Christie’s in London.

The Sun’s headline proclaims the chair to be a “million pounds of comfort. “The futuristic, airplane-like interpretation of an 18th-century chaise, called the Lockheed Lounge, was created in 1986 by Australian-born designer — who said he “had this image of a fluid aluminium form”.

The chair is shinny so it might attract many ladies but it sure doesn’t look too comfortable. They didn’t convince me at all. I’ll have to test this one personally. Will anyone contribute to purchase it?
