Dunbar Seating
American
Revered for its handcrafted and highly collectible mid-century modern sofas, coffee tables and other furnishings, Dunbar Furniture was founded in 1910 in Berne, Indiana, but it didn’t gain widespread recognition until the ’30s, following the introduction of its president to a designer who would leave an indelible mark on the company’s legacy: Edward Wormley.
After a stint at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Oswego, Illinois-born Wormley worked as an interior designer for Marshall Field’s before joining Dunbar in 1931. Initially focused on developing the company’s cheapest furniture line, which could be bought with soap coupons, he was soon leading Dunbar Furniture into a new era of residential furniture for modern American homes. He would serve as the company’s design director for over three decades, designing about 150 pieces each year.
During that time, he oversaw the production of designs in a wide range of materials, with influences ranging from Scandinavian modernism to Art Deco. There were modern upholstery pieces, like swiveling lounge chairs and low-slung sofas, and experiments with textural wood on bar carts and cabinets as well as minimal, sculptural tables and functional office furniture. A passionate collector of Tiffany Studios lamps, Wormley used their glass tiles in Dunbar tables in 1956. He also worked on the reproduction of pieces by designers such as Jean-Michel Frank and Richard Riemerschmid.
One standout Dunbar Furniture collection was Janus, introduced in the 1960s, with Austrian-born ceramicists Otto and Gertrud Natzler. These pieces see the Natzlers’ uniquely artful ceramic tiles set into several styles of wooden tables. They remain some of the most sought-after mid-century modern Dunbar pieces on the vintage market today. During the peak of his design career and, indeed, the height of Dunbar Furniture’s history, Wormley amassed a whopping 30 Good Design awards between 1950 and 1955 through the “Good Design” exhibition, hosted by the Chicago Merchandise Mart and the Museum of Modern Art. Dunbar today produces a limited selection of archival Wormley designs, but many sales of original Dunbar pieces are through the resale market.

Pair of Mid-Century Modern Lounge Chairs New Black/White Geometric Fabric
By Dunbar Furniture
Located in Palm Springs, CA
This pair of chairs will be perfect for any high end Mid-Century Modern interior. They used to be in every "TV room" in the USA. One for him and one for her. now they are perfect for any couple or family. The white with black chair had a Dunbar label, the other had no label, but both chairs came from the same vintage Palm Springs Estate. The bigger black with white chair is taller and a little more narrow. They look amazing together in a positive or negative high end black and white jacquard. Respectfully chosen to have a vintage feel but also look extremely fresh and modern in their new incarnation. Expertly reupholstered. Back buttons as per original chairs. Loose reversible seat cushions. These chairs are currently in our N Palm Springs showroom in a 1960s Palm Springs modern vignette. We have a beautiful wood French coffee table and a pair of Laurel brutalist lamps...
