Old Chapel Home Collection™ — Emerald City Collection
Leg-O-Matic Folding Dining Chairs – Set of Four – Emerald City Edition – Hand-Finished Designer Collection
Reimagined as part of the Old Chapel Home Collection™ Emerald City Collection, this extraordinary set of four vintage Leg-O-Matic folding dining chairs has been transformed from an ingenious mid-century utility design into a sophisticated statement for today’s luxury interiors.
Originally manufactured by the Leg-O-Matic Company of Bridgeport, Connecticut, these patented folding dining chairs remain faithful to their celebrated engineering while receiving a meticulous designer-quality restoration. Their signature folding mechanism has been carefully preserved, allowing each chair to open effortlessly, lock securely into position, and collapse into an exceptionally compact profile for storage.
The hardwood frames have been professionally refinished in Old Chapel Emerald City™, a rich architectural emerald green with a soft satin sheen inspired by historic European libraries, boutique hotels, and classic Hollywood Regency interiors. Delicate hand-applied antique gold gilding has been added selectively to the profile edges, crest rail, and architectural details, creating subtle highlights that accentuate the chair’s elegant silhouette without overwhelming its original design.
The original cane backs have been refinished to complement the Emerald City finish, preserving their woven texture while seamlessly integrating them into the overall design. Each seat has been upholstered in luxurious emerald performance velvet, providing a refined visual depth and exceptional comfort while echoing the rich tones of the painted frame.
Although these chairs fold flat for convenient storage, they feel remarkably substantial once opened. The patented spring-lock mechanism creates a surprisingly rigid and stable dining chair that rivals many permanent seating designs, making them equally suited for everyday use or sophisticated entertaining.
This designer edition beautifully bridges Mid-Century Modern innovation with Hollywood Regency glamour, creating a rare combination of engineering, craftsmanship, and dramatic color. Around a glass dining table, in a boutique hospitality setting, or as distinctive accent seating, these chairs become both functional furniture and sculptural conversation pieces.
Each chair has been individually restored with careful attention to preserving its original proportions, patented mechanism, and unmistakable Leg-O-Matic identity while elevating its presentation to luxury designer standards.

The original factory finish has been carefully refinished in our signature Old Chapel Emerald City™ architectural green with a durable satin furniture-grade topcoat. Subtle hand-applied antique gold gilding has been added to selected architectural details to enhance the chair’s sculptural lines while preserving its original character. Each chair has been individually inspected and restored. The patented Leg-O-Matic folding mechanisms operate smoothly, opening effortlessly, locking securely in the upright position, and folding flat for compact storage exactly as originally designed. All hardware has been cleaned and serviced, and the chairs remain remarkably sturdy and stable when in use. The cane back panels have been carefully refinished to coordinate with the new designer finish while retaining their original woven construction. Each chair has been newly upholstered in premium emerald green performance velvet, providing a refined appearance and comfortable seating while remaining true to the chair’s original proportions. As with any professionally restored vintage furniture, very minor variations in hand-applied finishes may be present and are considered part of the artisan character of the restoration. The chairs are structurally sound with solid joinery, no loose components, and no known functional issues. Overall, this is an exceptional designer-restored set that successfully combines the ingenious engineering of the original 1970 Leg-O-Matic folding chair with a luxury finish suitable for today’s high-end interiors. The result is a rare set of folding dining chairs that functions beautifully while presenting as bespoke designer furniture. less
