Set of 4 McGuire Director’s “X” Chairs – Olive Green Suede, 1950s Oriental Hardwood Collection
Set of four authentic McGuire Director’s “X” Chairs from the late 1950s to early 1960s, part of McGuire’s celebrated Oriental Hardwood Collection. These iconic chairs exemplify the timeless design and craftsmanship that made McGuire a San Francisco institution and a favorite among designers of mid-century modern and California casual interiors.

Design & Construction:
• Model: OH-10FG, often referred to as the “X-Chair” or Director’s Chair
• Frame: Handcrafted solid oak with warm honey-toned finish, showcasing McGuire’s signature joinery and elegant proportions
• Seating: Original olive green suede leather seats and backs, luxuriously soft and richly colored, showing a beautifully aged patina
• Details: Secured with McGuire’s trademark rawhide leather lashings and solid brass hardware—elements that highlight both function and artistry
• Form: The angular X-base and slung seat give the chair a commanding presence, striking the perfect balance between casual comfort and sculptural form

Condition:
These chairs are in excellent vintage condition with expected signs of age and use. The suede has developed a soft, even patina, enhancing their character without compromising durability. Frames are sturdy and stable, lashings intact, and brass hardware has a mellowed glow.

Dimensions: 24”W × 20”D × 32.5”H See less
