A Danish Modern Mid-Century Lounge Chair Armchair Jens Risom Style American Rare
Great looking mid-century armchair coming directly from a 1950s estate where it has been since new.  No markings, but the foam had a tag from a Brooklyn, NY company, so I believe it to be American.  The lines are similar to designs by Jens Risom, but I could not find an exact match.  
Chair will be outstanding floating in a room facing a seating group.  The rail along the back and the back legs have excellent lines.  
Solid walnut frame, very well made and heavy.  No loose joints.  Original finish and upholstery.  A comfortable seat ideal for any sized person.
Condition:  Latex foam in the seat has suffered from dry rot and must be replaced.  I removed a good deal of the foam and replaced it with stuffing, but it will still need work to be fully corrected.  Chair will look outstanding with new upholstery.
Measurements:
33" H x 27" W x 31" D x 15" Seat height
