More About This Item
A full set of six is hard to find. These Edward Wormley for Dunbar armchairs, model 4710-A, were made in Berne, Indiana, and each is marked with a plaque and under the arm. They were originally made for Mrs. Lois C. Olds, a provenance detail that adds to their collectability.
The frames are solid, well-constructed mahogany, paired with tan leather upholstery. The sleek wooden lines and warm neutral leather suit nearly any dining table, from a glossy modern one to a traditional wood table, and they bring a relaxed, retro confidence without feeling dated. They also work beyond the dining room as extra seating in a living space or as a row of statement chairs.
In remarkable vintage condition with some normal wear detailed in the condition notes.

Design Style
These chairs embody mid-century modern design: minimal, functional, and warmly crafted. Clean lines, exposed mahogany, and neutral leather give them a timeless appeal that fits retro, transitional, and contemporary rooms, and they pair well with both wood and glass tables.
