NY Good Questions: Information on These Chairs?

1.16chair.jpgHello AT,

My husband and I bought these chairs on Craigslist.

The people we bought them from purchased the chairs a while back and couldn't remember where they're from.

They even did their own research and couldn't come up with the designer.

So, I thought I'd try the AT community.

Any idea where these are from?

Thanks! Sasha

Great chairs. Imagine how sexy they'd be without the spindles and that upper back rest.

I don't know, but the style looks Paul McCobb. Perhaps one of his students?

They may be by Baumritter. Baumritter turned into Ethan Allen. The back is very similiar to chairs that I have.

Paul McCobb for sure, his designs are hit or miss, but in the right situation can look beautiful.

Wow! Thanks guys!

We bought 2 of these for a fraction of what they're asking on 1stDibs. I love Craigslist!
