Un-lock your style-denial with these INCREDIBLE vintage armchairs by Gunlocke! This is a FANTASTIC set of 6 Gunlocke armchairs all six composed of marvelous walnut frames with A shaped sides, straight tapered legs with a little back lean, side stretchers, and a front apron giving the seat and back cushions a floating effect in the frame… Talk about awesome!! Four of the chairs are wearing a gorgeous gold-ish tan or khaki toned gold distressed leather on the seats and backs while the other two wear sultry black distressed leather all bearing steel nail head detail on the back seam of the seat cushions. I mean… Talk about easy on the eyes!!! WOW!!! The leather on all of the chairs is in what we like to call “perfectly imperfect” condition as they show distressing and signs of wear and use as you would expect given their age however, we also think it just enhances their vintage charm and we chose to leave it as such. They are Mid-Century Modern in style with a Scandinavian Modern flair, and they will be wonderful side or accent chairs in your living or family room or split them up and use two in your bedroom and four in the study or use them all in an office waiting area! Honestly, the gold and black leather look incredible together and these marvelous walnut frames just pulls them all together! They’re sophisticated, comfortable, versatile, and absolutely gushing with Gunlocke Greatness!!!
For over a century, Gunlocke has manufactured great furniture for large and small companies, government agencies and even U.S. Presidents. In 1902 William H. Gunlocke and four other wood furniture experts acquired a vacant factory in Wayland, New York where they established the W. H. Gunlocke Chair Company, which initially specialized in seating for homes, libraries, and lounges. They rapidly grew, expanding their range of products to include office seating and steam bending in the company’s manufacturing process. Gunlocke was awarded its first National Contract with Western Electric and despite the Depression, Gunlocke continued to grow. President Franklin D. Roosevelt enhanced the company’s prestige by choosing Gunlocke furniture for the White House. In 1937, following the death of his father, Howard Gunlocke became president and established the use of direct salespeople and showrooms; then, in the 1940’s during the war years, primarily Gunlocke’s output was for government and military facilities. In 1962 President John F. Kennedy made crucial Cuban Missile Crisis decisions – from his Gunlocke chair in the Oval Office and in 2002, Gunlocke celebrated its 100th anniversary. With the latest high-tech equipment and State-of-the-art machinery, Gunlocke continues to produce superior wood furniture at competitive prices.
