Rare Pair of Napoleonic Campaign Chairs John Vesey
About the Item
Designed by John Vesey circa 1958, the pair of Napoleonic campaign adjustable chairs are of the model in his repertoire that rarely surfaced on the vintage market. These chairs were constructed with a mental frame that appears elegant and airy, the leather upholstery and adjustable arm bands took the cues from traditional French Campaign chair. The position of the back can be adjusted with the arm leather straps. The combination is a perfect modern interpretation of antiquity, a very central concept of John Vesey's design philosophy.

Pair of John Vesey "Maximilian Lounge Chairs"
By John Vesey
Located in New York, NY
The “Maximilian Lounge Chair” was John Vesey’s finest and most celebrated chair design — it was also his most expensive one to produce, and appeared in a 1959 issue of Vogue.
