Summary[edit]

Description
English: Chair

1876-80
Patents were often used not only to protect designs and technical innovations, but also as a marketing device to signal novelty. This chair features two ideas patented by Hunzinger; diagonal bracing struts and wool-covered metal strips to form the seat. The strips, echoing the red paint on the wood, were a durable and colourful alternative to cane.
USA, New York; designed by George Hunzinger.

Maple, turned and painted, with steel seat and back.

Collection ID: W.14-1985
