Crushing on

Iconic dining chairs

I've long loved unexpected furniture pairings. Placing a beautifully designed chair from one of the mid-century modern greats with a dining table isn't a new concept. I've had my mind buried in the idea all morning while searching for a client's perfect dining table companion. Here are some favorites along with the designer's name. A number of these are available new or as originals and can be found on sites such as First Dibs, Etsy and Ebay

Saarinen - Tulip Chair 



Marcel Breuer - Cesca Chair


Michael Thonet - Bentwood chair 1950's reproductions. The original was designed in the 1800's.



Warren Platner - Platner arm chair

I WOULD love a brass set of these someday for a dining room. 


 Saarinen - Executive chair


 Thayer Coggin by Milo Baughman - brass leg chairs


Ray and Charles Eames - Eiffel Chair



 Milo Baughman metal Chippendale Chairs (are a favorite)


Harry Bertoia for Knoll dining chair
