MCM Royal Blue & Blue Green Recliner & Ottoman Attributed to Selig Monroe Chair

About the Item

Fabulous vintage Mid-Century Modern tone on tone royal blue & iridescent green striped recliner and ottoman attributed to Selig Monroe chair. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. This chair was reupholstered as some point in its life and is in fabulous condition. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Mid-20th Century. Blue, Blue… Blue Green Chair… And Ottoman!! Sorry, a little Elvis overcame me!! This is a fantastic vintage reclining chair and ottoman that has been reupholstered in a gorgeous royal blue and iridescent green tone on tone striped fabric with button detail, arm covers, a headguard, and two matching throw pillows. This fabric is a phenomenal eye teaser!! In a darker room the fabric takes on a darker navy, almost black color, but in a room with brighter lighting, depending on the angle, the royal blue or iridescent green is more prominent. It’s FABULOUS!! This set is attributed to the wonderful Monroe chair by Selig, but the body of the chair is also very similar to the style and quality of Edward Wormley for Dunbar… it’s just awesome!! Both the chair and ottoman stand beautifully on straight, tapered wood legs and the tall back of the chair reclines. It has continual reclining positions so you can recline just a little, a lot, and everything in-between. There is no footrest attached to the chair, so that’s where the matching ottoman comes in!! You decide if you want your feet up or not! And talk about comfortable!! This is exactly the chair and ottoman you want in front of the television in your living room or in front of the fireplace with a book on a cold, rainy day. They would be wonderful in the corner of your bedroom or in the sitting room next to a gorgeous floor lamp. It is mid-century modern, but it will blend in beautifully with many design styles and décor. Comfort, versatility, and superb style all wrapped into this dynamic duo. What are you waiting for?

This pair of club chairs is ready to be your new favorite vintage pieces and make a bold statement in any room you choose! Harvey Probber was born on September 17, 1922, in Brooklyn, New York. He began his love for furniture early and while attending high school he took a part-time job in a used furniture store and was inspired to try his hand at drawing ideas for furniture. Probber sold his first sofa design when he was just 16, for $10. After high school graduation, he accepted a job as designer for Trade Upholstery which was a small manufacturing facility. The 1940’s was the beginning of American modernism, a time characterized by young designers with talent, initiative, and a willingness to take risks with new ideas. Probber was one of an early band of pioneer designers in a field that included iconic names such as D.J. DePree of Herman Miller, Hans Knoll, Georg Tanier, and Jack Lenor Larsen. Probber established Harvey Probber, Inc., in 1945 and in the mid years of the twentieth century, Harvey Probber became one of America's leading designers. He favored exotic woods, highly polished lacquer, hand-rubbed finishes, and extravagant upholstery fabrics. In little over a decade, Harvey Probber, Inc. became one of the country’s leading contemporary furniture firms. His most significant design breakthrough was his modular seating concept. It was the first of its kind. He also introduced the “sling chair” and “nuclear furniture” which could be clustered and had interchangeable pieces. By the 1970s, Harvey Probber, Inc. had opened trade showrooms in major design centers across the country. His work was awarded two "Best of Neocon" Gold Awards from the Resources Council of the Institute of Business Designers for the Houston Chair...
