Set of Four Yellow Ion Dining Chairs by Gideon Kramer for the Space Needle

About the Item

Exceptional set of four completely original Ion chairs designed by Gideon Kramer for the observation deck of the Seattle Space Needle. The original yellow finish is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs. Very light scratches may be evident under close inspection but these chairs have obviously been well taken care of and have seen little use. No pitting to the chrome and virtually no surface rust as well. The chairs retain all the original parts including rubber shocks mounts and feet. All in very good condition. These bright, mod, rare ion chairs are the best set on the market today.
