Mid Century Modern by Scandinavian Maker Johannes Hansen

CBS ordered a dozen and used them for the televised Kennedy Nixon Presidential Debates in the 1960's and has since been known simply as “the chair”. After the debate CBS donated them to the Smithsonian Institute. Great chair for the office, shop or business!

Mix with any home or office decor or use as a library accent pieces!

WHAT A GREAT DESIGN. GREAT BACK SUPPORT. GREAT MASCULINE LINES.

They are in as found condition. Frames are in solid and study. The cane as some issues with breakage. One chair is in better cane condition than the other. See the pics for cane condition and please feel free to ask questions. I am not an expert in this type of cane seating.

A NICE ADDITION TO ANY MID CENTURY MODERN COLLECTION.
