Lounge on extravagant blue velvet, suspended across a sturdy, but artfully imagined structure made of heavy nickeled steel silver metal. The sparse original structure feels like a piece of modern art, and the new luxurious upholstery allows the chairs to feel comfortable and usable, not out of place in a contemporary interior. Every part of these decorative pieces is quality made—evident by the heaviness of the chairs—resulting in a timeless midcentury set. All chairs are in great vintage condition. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
