About the Item

The most comfortable wooden framed small scale lounge chair I have ever sat in. Designed by Jack Van Der Molen for the Jamestown Lounge Furniture Company during the 1950’s. Constructed of solid white oak with a clear finish it is sound and sturdy with just enough upholstery to keep it comfortable yet streamlined. Research indicates the series was designed for executive office use. Contradictory to its intended purpose its demure scale lends it to elegant dwelling installations as well. This chair originally in camel colored leather with contrasting welts. Currently in a Christopher Hyland silk which gives the simple chair an air of elegance. It is finished off with nail heads. The chairs frontal colonnade arm support give it a classic look while the back buttress supports between back leg and upper back give the chair an arts and crafts Gothic reference. It is an extraordinarily versatile chair.
