We give these chairs an ABSOLUTE TEN!!!!! We can’t say “perfect” because they’re vintage… and, well, you know… in the vintage world, the word “perfect” is a NO-NO!! But… honestly… they’re pretty darn close!!! They are in BEAUTIFUL vintage condition and there’s TEN of them!!! This is a GORGEOUS set of 10 dining chairs by Hibriten composed of wonderful walnut frames bearing front, side, and back stretchers between straight square front legs and straight & slightly splayed back legs. 2 chairs have arms and wear a fantastic harvest gold hopsacking fabric on their trapezoid shaped seats and the other 8 are side chairs (no arms!), 4 wearing the same handsome harvest gold and the other 4 wear a marvelous olive green hopsacking fabric… both colors are quintessential to their fabulous 60’s era! Their incredible woven cane backs are not only beautiful when viewed from the front… they bear a fabulous open feature so you can also admire the exquisite cane from behind! Do you have a lonely, LARGE dining table? Awesome!! This set of ten is EXACTLY what the designer ordered to complete your incredible setting! The armchairs serving as host & hostess on each end and four on each side creating a set up ready for a comfortable & fabulous feasting experience! If you do not have a sizeable dining table, and you are in the market for one large enough to host these charming chairs, we have several listed here that would complement them nicely… check them out!! They would also be an excellent choice for an office whether surrounding a conference table, looking SPLENDID in the waiting room, or separated and sitting individually at workstations as guest chairs. Clean lines, timeless design, versatility, and they’re SCREAMING with Mid-Century Modern magnificence!! And they’re Hibriten folks… you can’t go wrong here!!
Hibriten actually had 2 companies- Hibriten Furniture Co, and Hibriten Chair Co. Both located in Lenoir, N. C. Hibriten Furniture was founded in the 1920’s by Orrin Robbins and Hibriten Chair Co. was founded a few years later by Robey Robbins. Hibriten Chair Co. was well known for its extremely high quality of solid mahogany or walnut French reproductions and other styles of furniture. Hibriten became a part of Bernhardt Furniture in the 1950-1960’s with their president George C. Robbins and was eventually purchased by Bernhardt sometime in the early 1970’s. A fun fact… The furniture on the set of the popular 1965-1971 television show “Green Acres” was designed by Hibriten.
