This is a set of 4 "Cracked Ice" rattan dining chairs designed by Elinor McGuire in 1968. This is an iconic McGuire design, famous for its distinct back, a rattan oval that frames a series of smaller rattan segments bound by rawhide to create the illusion of cracked ice or shattered glass.
The dining chairs have a cerused finish, which gives them an organic modern or coastal look. Each chair is signed with a brass plaque mounted under the chair seat and with an inlaid mother of pearl M on the back of the seat, signifying McGuire's highest quality pieces.

Each chair measures 37" tall, 21.5" wide, and 24" deep, with a seat height of 15.25 inches and an arm height of 19 inches. These chairs were used with 3" thick seat cushions, which brought the seat height up to a more standard 18.25 inches. less
