Summary
The Bumper Lounge Chair from Geiger delivers effortless comfort in an elegant design. Made with Geiger’s signature attention to detail, its arm cap, inner shell, and outer shell are meticulously shaped from one continuous piece of upholstery, emphasizing its nearly seamless form. The Bumper Lounge Chair features a slight pitch and short seat, which helps relieve pressure on the sitter’s lower back. A four-star base with return-to-center mechanism and standard arms complete this inviting design.

Master of reinvention
One of legendary designer Ward Bennett’s best-known designs, his 1964 Bumper Chair was inspired by the tub-shaped, leather-clad swivel chair used by George Washington in his Mount Vernon estate.
The low-down on arm options
Bumper Chairs are available with a choice of arm options. Standard arms provide a place to rest elbows—and a way to avoid neck or shoulder strain while seated at a desk. Low arms make it easy to push chairs in without bumping into the desks or tables, which can mar the upholstery over time.
Upping the ante for upholstery
Geiger’s skilled team of upholsterers are always up for the challenge of Bumper’s fully upholstered seat, with its generous curves, tight allowances, and minimal seaming. We’ve curated a selection of our top textiles for you to choose from when specifying your Bumper Chair.
