Abstract: A recreational chair may be assembled for a seated chair condition or disassembled or folded to a collapsed compact condition for easy handling and storage purposes. Rods form a square seat frame and are pivotably connected at their respective median points whereby the rod members may be folded in half for the compact storage condition. Each rod is bifurcated and the bifurcated parts constitute a snap-latch device whereby in a closed position, the device is locked for the seating condition and in an open position, the device is unlocked for the collapsible storage condition. Leg members and back frame members of the chair are constructed of hollow tubes which are made of a durable rigid lightweight material such as plastic, aluminum or steel. Supporting seat and back canvas swatches are mounted on their respective frames and each of the swatches may be compactly rolled for storage.
