NOW SOLD Vintage Eero Saarinen Executive Arm Chair with Metal Legs for Knoll Blue B

NOW SOLD Fresh out of storage and for sale here is a vintage Eero Saarinen designed Executive Arm chair, manufactured by Knoll .I purchased several of these chairs a few years ago of the owner who purchased them off of IBM in the late 1980’s (all will be listed individually for sale on this website over the next few days) . Many of these chairs still retain their IBM inventory ID number (this chair does not). Discontinued for several years, Knoll has begun manufacturing them again, and they can be purchased from the Design Within Reach website for over $1500.00 US brand new: http://www.dwr.com/product/saarinen-executive-armchair-metal-boucle.do?sortby=ourPicks . This one is a vintage piece. The Knoll label was removed when this was re-upholstered in 1983 by IBM (other chairs have labels from the re-upholsterer indicating this, but this one does not). The color is Blue. As I mentioned this is just out of storage. It needs to be cleaned as it is dirty. The foam is stiffening, and crumbling, and there is a seam split, and a split near the arm. The legs are clean and free from tarnish, but two of the feet are missing (these can be ordered from knoll, or find vintage ones on ebay) . I have not done anything to clean or alter this chair. This is as I found it. This is a classic Mid Century design and are often featured on the set of Mad Men and many other television shows and movies. This would greatly compliment any Eames Era Mid Century modern living space, or add a slightly retro accent to any contemporary room. Here is your chance to own an original icon of Modern Design, at a fraction of the price. $SOLD At this price you can have it re-upholstered in the fabric of your choice and still have many hundreds of dollars versus new.
