Description :

Confirmed by a local upholsterer as a Billy Haines design, this classic mid‑century armchair features a sculptural fan‑back silhouette and carved wood accents characteristic of late‑1950s to early‑1960s styling. The original wool upholstery is tufted and displays decorative textile patterns typical of the era, giving the chair a blend of modernist lines and subtle ornamentation. The frame is solid and well‑built, offering an excellent foundation for restoration.

The original wool upholstery shows age and wear and will require full reupholstery. The front fabric/wood panels have separated and will need to be reattached. Once restored, this piece has the potential to become a standout accent chair with authentic mid‑century character and the distinctive Hollywood Regency influence associated with Haines’ work.

Features:

  • Confirmed Billy Haines design (verified by local upholsterer)

  • Mid‑century fan‑back silhouette with sculptural presence

  • Original tufted wool upholstery (worn; ready for replacement)

  • Carved wood accents along the arms and front panels

  • Front fabric/wood panels detached and require reattachment

  • Solid, stable frame ideal for restoration

  • Excellent candidate for custom upholstery or period‑correct refurbishment

Condition: Wear consistent with age and use. Wool upholstery is worn and requires replacement. Front panels detached. Frame is solid. See photos for details.

Notes: Please review all photos prior to bidding. Item sold as‑is.



Dimensions : 33 in L x 41 in W x 30 in H x 20.5 in D
