Pair of Chrome and Leather Lounge Chairs with Ottomans by Richard Hersberger

About the Item

RARE PAIR OF CHROME AND LEATHER LOUNGE CHAIRS AND OTTOMANS Richard Hersberger for Pace ca. 1970s unmarked Item # 311GNP13S These gorgeous chairs designed by Richard Hersberger in the 1970s retain their original leather, a beautifully patinated and overall silky supple covering rich with surface history, discoloration, stains and gentle wear that juxtapose the crisp chroming of the frames beautifully. Metal is always such a harsh modernist surface that worn leather is usually the perfect compliment, providing comfort and inherent softness to an otherwise unforgiving and eternal structure. The present pair are particularly nice because everything about the upholstery is soft, comfortable, supportive and supple - you absolutely sink into them. And together with the ottomans, the pair offer complete comfort together with exquisite form and design. The quality is self-evident with incredibly heavy flat-bar steel, the medial bar machined from solid metal finished in blackened enamel. Offered as a rare pair together with their original ottomans, all retaining original upholstery that remains not only serviceable but particularly attractive with an ideal level of wear. Exquisite. Measurements: 35 7/8" H x 28 1/2" W x 33 1/4" D, 14" H to seat Condition Report: Heavily discolored leather surfaces throughout with minor stains and blemish; they are positively gorgeous with the wonderful vintage patina and carry their aged historical surfaces well; trace scuffing and wear to the chrome, minor pitting, overall a very beautiful presentation. Incredibly comfortable.
