fiberglass chairs
Lightweight plastic furniture
Fiberglass chairs are seats molded from glass-fiber-reinforced plastic, a material that allowed mid-century designers to create curved, one-piece shells impossible with traditional materials.
The term evokes modernist furniture—particularly Eames designs—though fiberglass chairs also appear in utilitarian settings like stadiums and cafeterias.
The waiting room had rows of orange fiberglass chairs bolted to the floor.
