Pair of Matching Emeco Aluminum Chairs with Vinyl Seats/Backs - $235


These chairs are the real deal, not some Target reproduction. Originally made for use on Naval vessels and built to withstand just about any kind of abuse ( including a torpedo attack), Emeco Navy chairs have come to embody the quality design and durability of mid century furniture. These particular chairs are in very good condition with only a few small, nearly imperceptible blemishes on the aluminum legs , and only a very small puncture ( 1cm or less)in the vinyl on one of the chairs. Additionally, the legs are missing their glides, but they can be replaced, and their absence does not effect the overall aesthetics of the chair. These types of chairs are highly sought after by designers and collectors. The body is made of durable brushed aluminum, the seats and backs are upholstered in brown vinyl. The date of manufacture is difficult to pinpoint.
