About the Item

Awesome black wood folding director’s chair with a handmade black, brown, and white geometric pattern needlepoint sling seat and back. It is in wonderful vintage condition. The wood has a new coat of black paint. The needlepoint is all intact and has been carefully cleaned. Please see photos, circa 1960s-1970s. Now this is a director’s chair!! I fell totally in love with it and had to have it. This will be a showstopper wherever you use it. It is comprised of a wood folding director’s style chair frame that is painted black. We have chosen to keep the original finish as I adore its patina. Including its nicks and dings and worn spots. But the piece de resistance is its handmade needlepoint seat and back. Wow! The geometric black, brown, and white design is simply spectacular! I would use this work of art in any room of my home and with any design style you may have. You cannot go wrong. Make this outstanding chair yours!

Modern Pair of Black and Walnut Tone Wood Accent or Dining Armchairs by Haworth
By Haworth
Located in Topeka, KS
Handsome pair of walnut tone wood accent or dining armchairs with black wool-like fabric upholstery. They are in wonderful original condition. The fabric is nearly perfect. The walnut stained, we believe ash, wood does show signs of age and use but nothing outstanding. There is wear to the stain on the arms where hands have rubbed. We call this patina. Please see photos, circa 1996. Here is a wonderful pair of little black chairs that can go everywhere. Just like that little black dress. This handsome set is made by Haworth Wood Seating of High Point, NC, circa 1996. Most likely they began life in an office setting, but this beautiful modern and sleek pair of chairs would enhance most any living space where you need a couple more places to sit. Or they would be fabulous host and hostess chairs at your dining table mixed with a myriad of other design options. Or place them at a small table for two...
