OK. I've had these vintage tall back chairs for a long while. I never figured out who manufactured or designed them. They came with a Glenn of CA table, so they could be as well. High quality construction - if they look a little lumpy in the pics its because the foam is completely dry and they need to be re-foamed. SO. I went to Caboom design fair in Santa Monica a few months ago. Picked up a catalog from the Tom Dixon booth and there they were! Some remarkably similar (not exact though) Tall Chairs. I just think its bizarre, like he must have seen some somewhere and was "inspired" by the design. Which would mean mine must exist somewhere else (so I SHOULD be able to figure out what they are). OR he came up with these without being influenced by another tall back design... Anyhow, I thought it was weird enough coincidence I would post it! Dixon's are the blue ones!
Or maybe they aren't all that similar in the first place and its all in my head.....

mine came with a round table, but it actually looked pretty good. Craft associates! not the prognosis I wanted, but that makes sense. I had other people go "Milo Baughman!" but I think everything is a Baughman these days... so I highly doubted it. It makes sense because Craft Associates... sometimes does these cheesy over the top sort of designs.
I like 'em both, but would...
I like 'em both, but would pick the vintage ones if I could.
I also like Tom Dixon, although his designs tend to be inspired by the work of others. That table, for instance, reminds me of this:
