A FABULOUS quartet of quintessential mid-century modern magnificence!!! WOW!! This is a set of four vintage dining chairs by Foster McDavid comprised of gorgeous walnut frames and the original cobalt blue faux Naugahyde leather upholstery on the seats and backs. They have high tapered backs with a wonderfully unusual design as the fabric wraps over the top and extends about a quarter of the way down the walnut back… it’s really a stunning feature! Also, the straight, square tapered back legs extend about a quarter of the way up the lower back of the chairs as one piece… also a stunning feature!! We found a quote online from Robert Foster’s son, Robert Foster Jr stating that this design may be Spectrum or Intaglio however, we were unable to confirm that information. There are other styles of these dining chairs, but this particular style was not produced in the quantity as the others, so these are rarer. They are going to look incredible at your mid-century modern dining table, game table, or breakfast nook (we have several listed here for sale that would pair wonderfully, check them out!)
Foster McDavid was a Tampa furniture company started in the early 1950’s by Robert Foster and Joe McDavid. According to online posts by Foster’s son Robert Foster Jr, Joe McDavid ran the company and Robert Foster designed the furniture. Apparently, Herbert Saiger designed some pieces as well. They had showrooms in High Point and Miami where they sold to interior designers and retailers. The company was sold in 1975.
High quality, reputable designer & manufacturer, impeccable style, and brilliant-ly blue!! This set of 4 dining chairs by Foster McDavid have it ALL!!! Don’t wait! Make them YOURS!!!
