Fabulous set of five mid-century modern Planner Group style #1534 dining chairs by Paul McCobb for Winchendon. Comprised of a dark walnut finished maple.

Beautiful condition with age-appropriate wear as you would expect with vintage pieces. Two of the chair backs do have small nicks. One has been repaired. All chairs have been re-glued.

SIMPLY AMAZING!! What a fabulous set of five mid-century modern dining chairs! They are part of the Planner Group for Winchendon designed by internationally known and revered designer Paul McCobb. They are style number 1534, and they are comprised of a beautiful maple frame with a dark walnut finish. The foam seats are covered in a brown chenille fabric with raised fiber squiggly undulating lines in colors of gold and turquoise or maybe its teal. The fabric is so awesome it reminds us of a comfy chenille bedspread. Just gorgeous. The most dynamic feature of these Planner Group chairs is the design of the back of the chair… it’s called their wing back. It is simply stunning. Not to mention their long and tapered legs. The Planner Group, in its time was considered one of America’s foremost coordinated groups of contemporary furniture. It obtained widespread acclaim and honors. It was praised by designers and architects for its simplicity, scale, refined lines, and its variety. It still is today. This set of Planner Group dining chairs would look marvelous by themselves in a sitting room or around a game table but combined with an incredible pair of host and hostess chairs they will be outstanding in your mid-century modern dining room.
