These ultra-comfortable chairs feature a striking, yet minimalist design with a sleek frame and supple original leather upholstery. The chrome frame, clean lines and a polished finish showcase Bennett's commitment to both form and function, and the geometric silhouettes of these chairs effortlessly blend into a variety of interior styles, from contemporary to retro-inspired, to classic authentic vintage collections.

Typical of Bennett's designs, the "scissor" base design not only adds visual interest, but also ensures stability and support, making the chairs as functional as they are aesthetically pleasing.
Whether in a living room, study, or office, these chairs make a bold statement while providing extremely comfortable seating options.
Truly timeless, and a testament to the enduring appeal of mid-century modern design, these Ward Bennett "Scissor" chairs are sure to become cherished pieces in any discerning collector's repertoire, or brining a touch of vintage charm and sophistication to any space they grace.
Ward Bennett
From the 1960s through the 80s, Ward Bennett was one of America’s best-known designers, famous for his luxurious brand of modernism. Clients included Gianni and Marella Agnelli, and Jann and Jane Wenner.
His furniture designs made contemporary refinements to historical prototypes, and his own homes - a striking, minimalist aerie in the famed Dakota building in Manhattan, and a monastically spare weekend house in East Hampton - were known around the world. less
