United States, 1960s
Introduced by Knoll as model 92 in 1948, Pierre Jeanneret's scissor chair has become a classic of mid-century modern design. The armless lounge chair features a solid birch frame with tapered legs set diagonally. A previous owner had this pair upholstered in a caramel vinyl, with matching webbing, and the frame treated with a pale crackle paint finish.
