Description
I’m reaching out to share a unique offering—a pair of vintage wire lounge chairs with documented provenance and a fascinating design story. These chairs were gifted to my stepfather, Joe Felkner, who worked at Thinline in Santa Ana from the early 1960s through 1972, rising from welder to company manager. According to family accounts, designer Warren Platner collaborated with him to refine welding techniques used for this piece. The chairs visually echo Platner’s iconic wire styles for Knoll, though they may be earlier or unique prototypes. They retain original Formica seat bases and have recently been professionally powder coated. They’ve been in our family since the early ’70s and are offered now with a full provenance statement.
