About the Item

Incredible vintage Modern orange & black painted tube cantilever sling lounge chairs in the style of Jerry Johnson, a pair. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, the original chrome tube was too rough to leave so they have been given a fresh black painted finish. The canvas cushions and slings have been professionally cleaned but they still have some stubborn stains, and the canvas condition is rough on the arms so many will want to reupholster. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1970’s. Frank Sinatra once said… “Orange is the Happiest Color.” Well, in this case Frank… we agree!! We are ECSTATIC to offer you this dynamic duo!!! This is a striking pair of vintage cantilever sling chairs in the style of Jerry Johnson. They are comprised of cantilever frames that were previously chrome however, it was pretty rough and we thought they would look spectacular painted black... and BOY were we RIGHT!!! One might even call it “That Old Black Magic!” … Frankie would!! They’re incredible!!! The orange canvas cushions are removeable, and the attached slings have a pocket sewn on the outside arm convenient for resting your book, phone, or television remote. They will be fabulous seating for your industrial open loft space, but they would also be wonderful in a bedroom, sitting room, or comfortable extra seating for your sunroom or lanai. Just the spot to sit back… put a relaxing Sinatra album on the turntable… and know that “The Best is Yet to Come!” Are they comfortable? VERY. Are they versatile? DEFINITELY. Will they go with many design styles? ABSOLUTELY!! These fabulous orange & black cantilever sling chairs check ALL of the boxes… Plus they will make a BOLD statement in your home! All you need to do now is… Bust out your “Pennies from Heaven” and Make them YOURS!!!

Scandinavian Modern Scissor Lounge Chair by Folke Ohlsson for DUX
By Folke Ohlsson, Dux of Sweden
Located in Topeka, KS
Handsome and iconic Scandinavian Modern Scissor lounge chair designed by Folke Ohlsson for DUX. It is in wonderful vintage condition. The wood frame has been restored; however, there may still be small signs of age. We did have to fill some rather deep flaws in the wood. The straps have been replaced with appropriate new straps. And the foam cushions are new and newly upholstered. Please see photos, circa 1950s. Now you can get all your DUX in a row!! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. This is the iconic and beautiful Scissor Lounge Chair. It was designed by Folke Ohlsson for his company DUX, Inc. purportedly in 1949. It is so incredible in its simplicity and when viewed from the side you can see immediately where it got its name. We are very excited about this wonderful chair here at our shop. Its walnut frame has been completely restored and we have replaced all the straps, which were beyond repair, with proper strapping. Plus, we have made new foam cushions and upholstered them in a fabulous black and taupe horizontal stripe fabric. Folke Ohlsson is a Scandinavian Modern Swedish furniture...
