About the Item

A striking set of five waterfall-style dining chairs in thick, curved Lucite, attributed to Hill Manufacturing, with strong stylistic ties to designs by Charles Hollis Jones and Leon Rosen for Pace Collection. The set includes two armchairs and three side chairs, showcasing the iconic 1980s silhouette with continuous arched arms and legs in crystal-clear acrylic. The sleek transparency of the Lucite frames brings an airy elegance to dining or accent settings, while the sculptural form provides a sense of movement and glamour typical of postmodern and Hollywood Regency design. Upholstery is original and ready for reimagining in a fabric of your choice. One additional side chair with a clean break to the Lucite (not pictured) is available and can be included at no charge if desired—an excellent opportunity for restoration or use as a parts chair.

Set of 4 Gastone Rinaldi Chromed Steel Dining Chairs for RIMA, Italy, 1970s
By RIMA, Gastone Rinaldi
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Designed by Gastone Rinaldi for RIMA in the 1970s, this set of four Space Age chromed steel chairs epitomizes Italian modernism at its sleekest. With fluid cantilevered frames and sculptural wire-form seats, these chairs reflect Rinaldi’s fascination with futuristic lines and ergonomic clarity. Their lightweight, minimalist aesthetic nods to the Bauhaus tradition while embracing the optimism of the Space Age movement. The gleaming chrome-plated steel construction is both strong and sculptural, with a continuous bent-tube form that adds a dynamic visual rhythm to any interior. Equally compelling as a full dining suite or styled individually. No cushions are included however seat and back cushions can be crafted easily for this set. Contact us for details. These Rinaldi chairs are perfect in a Mid-Century Modern, Space Age, Italian Modern, Postmodern, or Contemporary interior — but also create compelling contrast in Industrial, Transitional, or Minimalist settings. Incredibly versatile in use: ideal as dining chairs, side chairs, café chairs, game chairs, breakfast table chairs, occasional chairs, office guest chairs, or entryway and hallway chairs. Their sculptural form and light footprint make them an excellent option for retail displays, conference or meeting room chairs...

Set of 6 Channel-Tufted Post-Modern Dining Chairs by Finesse, 1970s, Signed
By Steve Chase
Located in Los Angeles, CA
An intriguing and rare set of six vintage dining chairs by Finesse Furniture Ltd., comprised of four side chairs and two armchairs (also known as captain’s chairs). These sculptural, channel-tufted chairs exemplify 1970s Postmodern glamour and offer strong visual appeal with their plush, modular upholstery and cantilevered brass bases. The label from Finesse Furniture Ltd is intact and present on five of the six of the chairs. The distinct silhouette of these chairs defined by stacked, contoured cushions and bold lines recalls the maximalist interiors popularized by designers like Steve Chase, while their construction and proportions also nod to the Art Deco revival and Hollywood Regency influences of the late 1970s and early 1980s. The unique design invites creative reupholstery: each channel-tufted section could be re-covered in contrasting tones or textures for a highly personalized, expressive look. These chairs would pair beautifully with a high-gloss lacquered or burl wood dining table, or a round glass or travertine-top table for a more eclectic aesthetic. This sculptural set of dining chairs by Finesse Furniture Ltd would work great in a Mid-Century Modern, Postmodern, or Hollywood Regency interior, but could also add a splash of glam to a Contemporary, Transitional, or even Art Deco inspired home or penthouse apartment. Also consider mixing them in with a Traditional or Minimalist space for a bold juxtaposition. Ideal for a commercial project such as a hotel dining room, members club, or design studio showroom. Consider using as dining chairs, cafe or breakfast table chairs, side chairs, conference or meeting room chairs...
