Alan Siegel Post-Modern Craftsman
Tongue
Chair, Signed
Dated 1981
By Alan Siegel
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This work of Post-Modern functional art is called the 'Tongue' chair by artist and sculptor Alan Siegel, exhibited in 1981 at the Betsy Rosenfield Gallery in Chicago. Signed and dated (1981) by the artist underneath the seat. Carved from Maple and Black Walnut, this gorgeous piece of art is something unique, fun and whimsical, and ideal for art and design collectors and investors.
This incredible chair, which in of itself is a sculpture of collectible fine art, was designed as a figural man's head where the backrest is comprised of the hair and eyes along with a sculpted nose, teeth and mustache. The tongue makes the seat and below that for the legs of the chair is the beard and chin. Other Alan Siegel chairs were present in the exhibition such as the 'Smiling Bandit' chair and 'Laughing Bandit' chair which were also carved from Maple and Black Walnut.
Ideal for Modern and Post-Modern homes, also consider for Mid-Century Modern, Contemporary, Transitional and Mixed-styled rooms. Works great as a side chair, hallway chair, entryway chair, occasional chair, captains chair for a dining table or game table, reading chair or fireside chair, or office desk or guest chair.

Medea
Model 102 Bentwood Armchair by Vittorio Nobili, c 1955 Italy, Signed
By Vittorio Nobili
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This fantastic collectors sculptural bentwood armchair is the 'Medea 102' chair by Vittorio Nobili for Fratelli Tagliabue and was crafted in Italy circa 1955, signed underneath with Medea insignia. Perfect for collectors looking for a unique and collectible chair.
The Medea series included model 102 which was the armchair, model 101 which was the side chair, and model 103 which was the upholstered version of the side chair. Model 102 is the most desirable due to the exotic wing-arms which gives the chair its unique look.
This Vittorio Nobili for F. LLI Tagliabue 'Medea' armchair would work great in a Mid-Century Modern, Scandanavian Modern or Danish Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Contemporary or Post-Modern room. Also consider mixing it up in a Traditional, Transitional, Classical or Art Deco room with a splash of juxtaposition. Would also be an apt choice in a commercial project such as a hotel lobby lounge or members club, creative design studio or high-rise executive office. Consider using as a side chair, cafe or breakfast table chair, bedside chair, fireside chair, dressing or changing room chair, hallway chair, entryway or mudroom chair, nursing or reading chair, meeting room chair...

Exceptionally Unique Set of
Breteau
Wrought Iron Chairs, c 1955 France, Signed
By Breteau
Located in Los Angeles, CA
An exceptionally unique set of wrought iron chairs stamped 'BRETEAU' with rope corded seats, circa 1955 France.
A similar chair sold in 2009 at Christie's, sold as 'Jean Luc Breteau'. This chair was also stamped and hand crafted in the same fashion, only difference with a leather wrapped seat. It sold for well over the estimate given by Christie's, with Buyers Premium and accounting for inflation the single chair cost around $9,000 to the lucky winning bidder. This set, even more special as a rare set of four, allowing the opportunity to use around a cafe or center table.
Three of the four chairs are stamped on the upper circular backrest, as can be seen in the photos. Each chair exhibits unique characteristics throughout consistent with hand-crafted and hand-hammered items. Exceptionally unique, and exquisitely refined.
These unique Breteau iron chairs would work great in a Mid-Century Modern, Scandanavian Modern or Danish Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Contemporary or Post-Modern room. Also consider mixing it up in a Traditional, Transitional, Classical or Art Deco room with a splash of juxtaposition.

Set of 4 Gastone Rinaldi Chromed Steel Dining Chairs for RIMA, Italy, 1970s
By RIMA, Gastone Rinaldi
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Designed by Gastone Rinaldi for RIMA in the 1970s, this set of four Space Age chromed steel chairs epitomizes Italian modernism at its sleekest. With fluid cantilevered frames and sculptural wire-form seats, these chairs reflect Rinaldi’s fascination with futuristic lines and ergonomic clarity. Their lightweight, minimalist aesthetic nods to the Bauhaus tradition while embracing the optimism of the Space Age movement.
The gleaming chrome-plated steel construction is both strong and sculptural, with a continuous bent-tube form that adds a dynamic visual rhythm to any interior. Equally compelling as a full dining suite or styled individually.
No cushions are included however seat and back cushions can be crafted easily for this set. Contact us for details.
These Rinaldi chairs are perfect in a Mid-Century Modern, Space Age, Italian Modern, Postmodern, or Contemporary interior — but also create compelling contrast in Industrial, Transitional, or Minimalist settings.
Incredibly versatile in use: ideal as dining chairs, side chairs, café chairs, game chairs, breakfast table chairs, occasional chairs, office guest chairs, or entryway and hallway chairs. Their sculptural form and light footprint make them an excellent option for retail displays, conference or meeting room chairs...

Located in London, GB
Complete set of four chrome cantilever MR10 chairs by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, in brown leather. This set of chairs is an early 1960s example of his famous design produced by Knoll International. The MR10 chair was first designed in the 1920s, and this set of four features the chrome springs on the backs and seats. Later the design was improved, with a shortening of the springs and a reversion to an elastic corset cord. The chairs still bear the oval sticker marks on the back of the bottom of the seats.
MR10 chairs are really comfortable, and are a real design Classic, as seen in many films and other media. Our MR10 chairs recently have been used to decorate the interior of a restaurant in London, which was featured in Architectural Digest, Dezeen, Elle Decoration, and many other publications (as shown in the images, which are property of Child Studio...
