About the Item

A stunning pair of Edward Wormley-designed Teardrop slipper chairs for Dunbar, showcasing the designer’s signature blend of sculptural elegance and modern restraint. These rare mid-century gems feature gracefully contoured backs and armless silhouettes, perched atop solid maple legs that offer warmth and architectural clarity. Upholstered in luxurious white Perennials velvet—a performance fabric known for its durability and soft hand—these chairs are as practical as they are refined. The teardrop form evokes a sense of fluidity and balance, making them ideal accent pieces for both minimalist and richly layered interiors. Whether placed in a living room, bedroom, or boutique setting, these Wormley classics bring timeless sophistication and collectible pedigree to any space. This set is unmarked so it is being sold as an attribution.
