This unmarked example captures the quiet sophistication and masterful craftsmanship that define Wormley’s work for Dunbar.
The frame is expertly sculpted from solid walnut, with elegantly curved arms and a subtly arched backrest that flows seamlessly into the legs. The seat and back have been upholstered in a butterscotch color featuring tufting that enhances both comfort and visual depth. The warm tones of the walnut and butterscotch complement each other beautifully, emphasizing the timeless modernism of the design.
We have a documented image from the Dunbar catalog confirming this as the “Quinn” armchair, model 1170 — a testament to its authenticity and place in Wormley’s celebrated collection.

A versatile and sophisticated piece, ideal for use as a desk chair, occasional chair, or accent piece in a curated interior.

In good vintage condition no tears to the upholstery some minor age appropriate wear to the wood. Please see photos
