Description
Title: Set of Two (2) Mid-Century Modern Angular Arm Chairs in Walnut & White Bouclé by Foster McDavid, USA, c. 1960's

About: Designed by Robert Foster Jr. in the early 1960's this exquisite set of angular armchairs for Foster McDavid, a small Tampa-based boutique furniture company established in 1950-1975, is proof that American designers could compete with their Scandinavian counterparts of the mid-century period.

With playful geometric patterns carved from the black walnut backrests that scream "1960's" and featuring newly upholstered cushions in a fabulous white cotton bouclé by Knoll Fabrics this set of Atomic-era lounge chairs is truly unlike any other. Building only limited numbers of pieces, usually no more than 500-700 for any particular model, the beauty of these Foster McDavid armchairs is matched only by their rarity.

This low profile armchair set is perfect for collectors and designers searching for an authentic vintage period piece for an Atomic Florida aesthetic. Make these pieces of American Mid-Century Modern history yours today and elevate your hosting space to new, atomic heights. Currently four chairs available.
