Hello I have this 40's lounge chair which is very well made.However; the previous owner had a rather sloppy upholstery job done to it ,and before I spend money to have it redone I need some help.Does anyone have an opinion ,or idea of the origin of this.Also; possibly a lead as to who may have designed it.The only things a really know about it is that it is very well crafted ,and it dates to the 1940's.I would really like to learn more about it ,so if i have it redone I can have it done correctly.I am including some large photo's.

Better to
include smaller photos (width = 450 or so). Or, any photos at all !

lol
looks ponti?
come on now.
the fabric job certainly is trying to copy the ponti chairs from the hotel but to me looks like a basic boring armchair.

Thanks for the help.
Thanks for letting me know it is nothing. At least I won't lose any sleep when I toss it out.Although; Maryanne had given me a brief glimmer of hope.

If you reupholstered it
If you did it up with an Eames or Girard print fabric from Maharam, it would look quite nice.
