Wood with bronze-gilded resin, Dedar upholstery

A pair of striking, high-backed chairs by the Pennsylvania-based architect and designer Adrian Pearsall. His extraordinary output, under the aegis of his prominent company Craft Associates, helped to define a certain mid-century aesthetic, though he has been largely overshadowed by its better-known exponents (such as Noguchi and Kagan).

This pair of chairs possess surging, jointed backs, and, for bases, crisscrossed panels of bronze-gilded resin. With their strong lines and distinct angles, they are characteristic of Pearsall's work.
