    Picked up this chair mostly for it's great rear legs and profile.
    I'm really at a lost with this one. All of the iron is textured like branches, either poured in a mold or maybe stamped. there is a leaf detail on the arms that do not show up on the images. Any help would greatly be appreciated. even if you have no idea about the designer, I would love to hear about how old you think the chair might be.
    Thanks in advance,
    Manuel

      Ooh, I don't know...I've looked at 20's, 30's and 40's and came up with nothing like it. Although there is a "pin" site with lots of pretty ones.

      I've got a yellow one coming real soon. So excited. As for me and your chair, I would be tripping over the legs all the time unless it was backed up in a corner! lol Interested to know when this is from. (fyi) I can see the leaves in the arms.

      Ok, so I think it has that Eames style look to it. ???

      I love this chair! and it does look very impractical. to me, it looks like a Woodard chair from the 1920s/30s. even some of their newer models have that crouching position, as if they are about to pounce on someone.
    7. emanueljay, 10 years ago
      @ho2cultcha That was my thought, only I was thinking late 50's. The foot pegs look similar to what Woodard used. I found the same chair at: https://www.onekingslane.com/product/22884/1355883 but no information.
      Thanks

      @PhilDavidAlexanderDavis
      I don't know why I didn't think of Diego Giacometti. I guess the twig/branch thing is similar. That sure would have made my day, if it was. I'm thinking I'll go with Woodard, hopefully I'll be able to confirm it someday.
    9. emanueljay, 10 years ago
      @shareurpassion, Thanks for your thoughts, and to all the rest of you also. I'll let you know if I ever come up with anything.
