| Palmer chair
originally designed for the charles and Palmer ducommun bel
air residence, the Palmer chair has been expertly reproduced by
baker. it has generous back and seat cushions, both detailed in a
plush button tufting and secured to the chair frame by small ties.
the chair's back is an intricately woven steel design. the frame and
legs are made from single bars of steel, heated and bent to form its
intricate curved base and unique, joined half-moon legs, which are
met by a single stretcher. the chair is offered in a stunning gold leaf
layered over red — the finish gently rubbed to bring through the red
undertones — or in deep, mottled green Verdigris with tufted burnt
orange upholstery. circa 1965.
