Description

Provenance and Background Info

(Written in 2011. This set of 4 chairs sold for $895 in 2011. These days in 2018 I’d value the same set of 4 at $995. I rarely stock sets of 4 vintage dining chairs anymore. I would certainly stock a set of 6 in this design though. (I would sell this exact design as a SET OF 6 CHAIRS FOR AROUND $1,800 (2018). If you’re a dealer (you have a shop or market stall) I would represent 4 of these chairs on your behalf (I’d price them at around $995 for 4). You’d need excellent photos of your set. Smaller COMMISSION FEE applies for shop owners. We will also work at bringing new clientele into your shop or your market stall.

Written in 2018. I can no longer find the description I wrote for this set in 2011. I don’t know the manufacturer of these chairs. They may be European- the timber looks a bit different to what I see in Australian-made chairs in this style, made in the 1960’s. I’m not entirely sure. They also may have been done by Moderntone, a successful furniture-making firm that operated in Melbourne in 1960’s. They are based on the Danish Model 75 dining chairs by Niels Moller.
