A sleek and sculptural pair of 1970s acrylic barrel-back counter stools attributed to Charles Hollis Jones, showcasing the designer’s celebrated fusion of clarity, glamour, and modernist form. Each stool is crafted from a single, thick, hand-bent sheet of Lucite that wraps into an elegant semicircular back and base, creating the floating, weightless profile strongly associated with Jones’s work.

The seats have been newly upholstered in a bold black-and-cream marbled fabric, adding a graphic counterpoint to the transparent frame. Polished brass caps secure the seat and complement the solid brass footrest, which runs low along the curved legs—an understated metallic accent that ties the composition together without interrupting the Lucite’s purity.

This silhouette aligns with Jones’s documented barrel-back designs from the 1970s, known for their clean arcs, clarity of material, and minimal hardware. While unsigned, the form, construction, thickness of acrylic, and brass detailing strongly support the attribution.
