Original Bent Plywood “Scoop Chair” by Carter Brothers Furniture

SOLD

mid-century modern scoop chair 2 cushion design carter brothers

This is an original bent plywood Mid-Century Modern chair designed by Carter Brothers.  The dual cushion design dates this piece as mid 50’s;  after 1958, the chair was redesigned using a single cushion for the seat and back.  The walnut shell has been refinished in our workshop. The foam cushions have been replaced and provide an exceedingly comfortable repose. Both cushions have been reupholstered with new, matte black vinyl.  As rare as the single-cushion version is, the two-cushion model is even more sought-after and particularly difficult to find.  This super cool, vintage chair has a seat height of 14 inches.

Pair Mid Century Modern Bent Plywood Lounge Chairs by ‘Viko’ Baumritter

SOLD

mid century modern viko baumritter molde plywood lounge chairs

This pair of mid century modern lounge chairs from the ‘Viko’ collection by Baumritter features molded bent plywood armrests with a rich walnut veneer.  Each chair has a spindled steel back & one chair back is lower than the other.  The sturdy steel frames are virtually indestructible.   The faux bois (false wood) texture on the steel frames is an interesting contrast to the voluptuous curves of the molded walnut sides.  Metal construction allows for the slim legs to achieve a near horizontal posture which would be structurally impractical with wood legs of this thickness. The result is a comfortable, supportive, and stylish chair. With updated high density foam cushions, and high quality upholstery fabric, these fabulous vintage chairs have been reincarnated and are ready for your home.  Founded in 1932 by two brothers-in-law,  Nathan Ancelland Theodore Baumritter,  Baumritter was  the forerunner to Ethan Allen, one of the largest furniture companies in the United States.  Each has a seat height of 15 inches.  Sold as a set only.
