“Scoop Chair” – Carter Brothers Furniture – circa 1958
As in the previous post, this graceful “Scoop Chair” was also produced by Carter Brothers around 1958 and is one of my favorite designs for any of the mass produced chairs of the period. These chairs orginally sold for between $19.99 to $24.99 but bring much higher prices now – when you can find one.
An exhaustive search does not reveal who designed this wonderful chair for Carter Brothers. This is often incorrectly attributed to Charles Eames or as having been produced by Plycraft. These chairs seem to be rarely found marked or labeled as being from Carter Bros.
The chair pictured is one we recently sold which was in as near to perfect condition as any I had ever seen.
