Set 4 mid century 1960’s chairs by Maurice Burke for Arkana after Eero Saarinen
About the Item
A set of very rare, stamped Arkana chairs. Very unusual as the upper shell is the same as the Arkana ’Tulip’ chair, but there are 4 legs rather than a single stem.
Not being able to find any examples, we were intrigued and contacted Maurice Burke’s estate. After seeing the chairs and carrying out some research, they confirmed that they were a Maurice Burke design especially adapted with four legs for the US market.
The upper shell is moulded fibreglass, with a reinforced gloss plastic bonded finish. The bright red cushions are original.
Size
Width 47cm x depth 54cm x height 79cm x seat height 47cm
Condition:
Very good mid century condition, only minor signs of wear reflecting age and use.
We make sure that any damage - no matter how minor - will be detailed in this description.
For further reassurance we can send a video and more detailed photos.
Please just ask.
