THIS IS NOW SOLD 1960 Solid WALNUT Walter NUGENT C-15 Arm CHAIR Vintage Canadian Late Mid Century Modern Icon
THIS IS NOW SOLD For sale here is a stunning vintage Solid walnut Arm / Lounge chair. This chair designed by Walter Nugent , arguably one of the greatest Canadian Mid Century Modern designer, is deceptively simple in its lines and form. Although this piece has its own unique stance, there are similarities to chairs done by Jens Risom (especially the arm rests). The frame is constructed out of solid walnut, done in an oiled gloss finish. I do not believe that the upholstery is original, but has been professionally recovered in this ultra sued at some point in its past. Fully labeled and dated 1960 patent pending. No tears or rips in the upholstery, but it could do with a good cleaning. The back does have a zipper so the cover can be removed and cleaned, or easily re-upholstered in a fabric to match your décor. The frame does have some scratches, but I have taken this into account in the price. It measures 25 inches wide, 23 inches deep (measured off the wall), and is 32 ½ inches high at the back. The seat itself measures 18 inches high at the knee, and the arm rests are 26 inches tall

NOW SOLD Solid Teak Vladimir KAGAN style Sculptural Arm / Lounge Chair
THIS NOW SOLD here is a stunning Solid Teak Arm / Lounge chairs with sculptural arm rests. One glance at the flowing sculptural frame and arms of this Solid Teak lounge chair brings to mind the classic chairs designed by Vladimir Kagan. Although this piece lacks labels and I have not been able to find the designer of this piece, they were clearly influenced by Kagans work. I believe the upholstery on this piece to be original. No tears or rips, but does display some wear from general usage near the headrest. It measures 26 inches wide, 29 inches deep (measured off the wall), and is 34 inches high at the back. The seat itself measures 16 inches high at the knee, and the arm rests are 21 inches tall. This would greatly compliment any Eames Era Mid Century modern living space, or add a slightly retro accent to any contemporary room. Sold
