  • Description
    Pair of masterfully crafted lounge chairs model 5480 in laminated ash with caned back and brass sabots by Edward Wormley for Dunbar, American 1954. These chairs are a tour de force of design. One of the first pieces made of laminated wood, this design stretched the mechanical capabilities of the master woodworkers making Wormley’s pieces. The tapering legs and brass sabot make them incredibly sexy.
