Pair of T Chairs by Katavolos, Littell & Kelley for Laverne International

About the Item

Pair of iconic T side chairs in thick saddle leather and chromed steel frames by Katavolos, Littell and Kelly for Laverne International. A very forward design for 1952, especially considering what the rest of the design world was doing. With the exception of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe among very few others. This pair has a rare all chrome base. Most, almost all, of the chairs being offered have a black enamel front panel.
