Set of 4 T Side Chairs by Katavolos, Littel, & Kelley for Laverne International

Creator: Katavolos Littel Kelly
Offered by: Machine Age

Description
William Katavolos in partnership with Douglas Kelley & Ross Littell designed the iconic sling-back T chair in 1952 as model 3LC in Laverne International's sculptural New Furniture series. Hidden screws attach the leather seat to a frame of chromed tubular steel and black-lacquered flat steel to create a striking three-legged chair. The T Chair can be found in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and other top museums worldwide.

This set of four side chairs is rendered in a cognac leather with a beautiful patina. We also have a pair available in a burgundy-brown leather.
