A rare set of four fully restored oval back library chairs by Jens Risom for Gaylord Brothers, produced in the United States c. 1960s. The set has been finished in linseed oil and upholstered in an off-white and golden weave from Holly Hunt’s Country Estate collection. The oil finish highlights the beautiful grain patterns of the sculpted walnut frames.
With extra wide seats and plush cushions, these make for perfect reading chairs and serve equally well as bold but timeless accent pieces. The backs connect to the frames with hidden hardware, giving the impression that they are floating effortlessly above the seats.
The GB insignia is stamped on the triangular wedges that support the corners of the seat frame.

The seats and backs have been fully reupholstered with new cushions, piping, and fabric. The joints connecting the rear legs to the seat frame were loose when we acquired this set. These joints have been fortified with new dowels and touched up for color match. less
