1980s Pair of Postmodern Lounge Chairs by Michael Graves w/ Maple Frames

About the Item

This is an important pair of Post-Modern lounge chairs designed by Michael Graves for Sunar Houseman in 1981. The listed price includes the pair. Their design features burled birdseye maple veneer over hardwood frames, and have tan upholstered seats with dark contrast piping. They are geometric in form, having design elements that are clearly informed by Biedermeier. Each chair measures 30 inches long, 30 inches wide, and is 34 inches high. We have intentionally left these chairs in their original condition and there are myriad nicks and wear to the edges on the arms. The fabric shows some spots and some discoloration, especially on the arm rests. There are some tears apparent, so reupholstery would be advised. Overall, these chairs are in solid condition with some wear apparent. Please see photos. Genuinely faulty goods will be replaced or money refunded on a case by case basis, however we must be advised of any faulty goods upon receipt of the item. It is the customer's responsibility to pay for return shipping and ship the item back to us. If the item is found to be faulty, we will also refund the postage cost.

1995 Pair of Mies van der Rohe Barcelona Lounge Chairs with Stainless Frames Red
By Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Knoll
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This is a pair of Barcelona Lounge Chairs, model 250LS, initially designed by Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich in 1929. These examples were produced by Knoll in the United States in 1995, and the listed price includes the pair. They feature solid, hand-polished stainless-steel frames (vs. the more commonly seen chrome-plated editions) and have cushions upholstered in Spinneybeck "Sabrina" calfskin leather in Nasturtium, a color that resembles a deep terracotta. The retail price of these chairs was over double the cost of a standard chrome Barcelona chair, rendering them to be very special indeed.
