Here is a fabulous, sculptural chair made by Carson's in the 1980's and attributed to the famed designer, Milo Baughman. Please note that I have three chairs, but I am selling them individually.
The form of this lounge chair features a dramatic cantilevered S-curve silhouette with a floating seat and tall, gently arched backrest, creating a striking architectural presence that feels both bold and inviting. A particularly interesting detail is the integrated rolling and swivel base. Discreet casters concealed beneath the upholstered plinth allow the chair to glide smoothly forward and backward, while the seat also swivels gently side to side (not a full 360-degree rotation). This subtle range of motion adds comfort and flexibility while preserving the chair’s clean, monolithic profile. The chair retains its original upholstery, an abstract geometric decorator textile with a fine, pointillist splatter ground that gives the surface a hand-painted, air-sprayed quality. The smooth, fabric layers softly mottled tones of mauve, plum, lavendar, green, and teal, with details in gold, beneath graphic framed motifs, a look strongly associated with postmodern and Memphis-era textile design of the late 1980s. Thick, tailored padding and continuous upholstery over the molded frame give the piece a seamless, sculptural presence from every angle. The result is a statement chair that bridges classic mid-century modern design with playful postmodern expression, perfect for a dining table, living room, bedroom, desk, or creative studio.
**Sold individually. Three chairs available.
