An iconic lounge chair by Edward Wormley for Dunbar, Model 4872A, showcasing Wormley’s rare talent for balancing modern clarity with quiet luxury. This piece is all clean geometry and tailored proportion, but it’s the details that really tell the story: the weight and integrity of its heavy-duty hardwood frame, the refined pitch of the back, and the sculptural legs in solid brass that bring a subtle gleam and unmistakable sophistication.
The chair is upholstered in a warm, velvety pile with a rich, tonal depth that catches the light just so. The cushions are generously filled for lasting comfort, supported by Wormley’s superior construction that has helped Dunbar pieces endure for generations. These chairs were built in a time when furniture wasn’t just made—it was engineered.
