Sleek and elegant pair of swivel chairs by Ward Bennett for Brickel Associates, American 1960s. The chairs are in excellent restored condition and have been newly recovered in a luxurious textured performance cream upholstery. The rich wooden bases complement the beautiful fabric. Chairs have been reupholstered and are unmarked.
Ward Bennett was an American designer, artist and sculptor. His career began at age 13, despite attending art schools in Florence and Paris, he was mostly self-taught, with skills ranging from jewelry-making to interior design. His reputation earned him many high-profile clients. Lyndon Johnson later asked Bennett to design a chair for his presidential library—“a cross between a barroom chair and a courtroom chair with a little Western saddle.” Today, he is considered the first American to use industrial materials for home furnishings.
