Unfortunately, I had to sell it several years ago while going through a difficult financial time, but I always loved the easy way that it came apart and how solid it was when it went back together! The cushions were the originals (orange/brown mixture), but I had to pull out the original padding which had hardened over the years. Still hope that I'll be able to find another one some day..https://www.blogger.com/profile/09196825151694427537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-5539084198379223112012-04-18T21:24:12.983-05:002012-04-18T21:24:12.983-05:00I dug and I mean dug a pair of these out of a gutt...I dug and I mean dug a pair of these out of a gutted out school bus full of mid century gold (mostly mass produced for offices) sitting in a construction salvage yard for $10ea. The arms on mine are more straight with square ends but other than that they are the same Yugoslavian chair with brown vinyl(puke) cushions. Mine were really roached from weather and spots on one them, the wood has turned grey but otherwise they are solid.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13646463582447530152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-57260747683386808852012-03-23T12:50:02.076-05:002012-03-23T12:50:02.076-05:00Just got the exacts some chair at the Antique show...Just got the exacts some chair at the Antique show in NYC...The guy was cleaning out rental properties and kept it instead of throwing it away.
