Vintage Knoll Mid - Century Modern Bertoia Diamond Wire Chairs 4 Perfect
Item History & Price
4 Bertoia Diamond chairs in MINT condition. I have owned and used these chairs for 30 years. Absolutley vintage. Positioned mostly on my deck for many years, these chairs were routinely repainted every few seasons to keep them fresh and honest. My wife and I recently sold our mid century palace and have settled into a condo. At that time, two years ago, we brought them inside. The maintenance has prevented any rust along the way. We dipped, stripped, and powder coated into the state yo...u see now. PERFECT! Powder coated white baskets, and powder coated black bases. No bends, broken welds, or flaws of any kind. They were reassembled using stainless steel allen bolts and self-locking nuts. New plastic sliders were obtained and affixed. For the interior, we acquired 4 Mongolian long hair sheep hides to make them comfy inside. If you don't want them, I understand and can reduce them from the sale if you prefer. I am also open the selling them in pairs. If that is your preference, let me know right away so I can relist to your taste. These chairs are flawless, no chips, scars, scrapes, corrosion, or anything that would say these looked used or tired or anything but mint. They are in fact as new, sort of. The original had a rubber coating on the baskets. Any originals that have intact rubber coating with no flaws are impossible to find today. Knoll does not offer this option any longer, but an equivalent to the chairs offered here are over $1300 each. These chairs are the same as offered today in every respect, plus the upgrade to stainless steel hardware which is great if you intend to use these outdoors. The buyer will be responsible for shipping. I can easily disassemble and box up the baskets in one unit and the bases in another. Two boxes, perfectly packed are included in the sale. I will do the packing, and you can arrange shipping via regional trucking. The east coast has a few services that will do this in the $350 range as they run up and down the coast continually. West coast will likely mean UPS or similar. Either way the shipping should be reasonable but is not promised in this sale. Should you have any questions about the items, condition, details, or want any additional info please let me know. Thank you for considering this sale. Time for the folks here at home to whittle down our treasures as we approach our 70s. Our paring of lifestyle possessions is your opportunity to capture the magic of Bertoia and the Knoll legacy.
