A pair of Mid-Century Modern bentwood side chairs by Thaden-Jordan, American, circa 1950. Designed by founders Herbert Von Thaden and Donald Lewis, these chairs are exemplary of the company’s innovative bent-laminate construction. Each chair features a sculptural shield-form back that seamlessly conforms to the laminated bentwood seat and legs—an iconic silhouette associated with Thaden-Jordan’s experimentation with molded plywood during the mid-century period. Both chairs retain their original labels. A rare and collectible pair suitable for dining, desk, or accent seating.
