Hello again!
Found an this chair selling online, it's profile looks really cool and got a wooden base, but its a bit far from where I live 🙁
Pictures taken by the owner and they are not the best, but still hope that?s enough for someone to id it !
Thank you for your time,
D

ok..
I'd pass. The clunky wood base and the sorta sexy upholstered top just don't make a good marriage. It was probably built in a garage by a horny old man.
just a thought,
Aunt Mark
ps I've been so wrong before.

Clunky Base
Not only does the base look clunky but it also looks to be too small for the chair.

Aunt Mark, you make me laugh
I'd pass too.
The upholstery is not that great either ? something about the way the arms curve into the seat just doesn't sit well with me. The base is just a hot mess.
Why not contact the seller and ask if there is a label or maker's mark?

Good points about the base
Guys you made me look at this chair from a different perspective 🙂 Thanks!
The base is a bit odd indeed !
I still like the shape of the chair though, but most probably I will pass considering the long ride to get it 🙂

There's a reason
that virtually all manufacturers have gone to the five-star base: it's more stable. And this base seems perilously small for its job. I predict the occasional upset . . .
