Hi, all. I've recovered this fab chair in a wacky fabric. It's wider and bigger than a Carter Bros. scoop chair. Any ideas who made it? It was purchased in America. The legs are teak with a bent ply frame.

Not sure
but I really like that vintage, wacky fabric. I hope you plan on leaving it intact,

Love the cubist image behind the chair,too!
Would that be a painting or print? Looks like Braque?

I could be WAY off base...
I could be WAY off base here, but the wall hanging looks like Robert Bushong for Tom Tru (distributed by Raymor) The chair certainly has a Craft Associates look about it.
The one below was attributed to CA and looks close

Seems Jesgord nailed it. Ano...
Seems Jesgord nailed it. Another company the utilized virtually the same design is Mersman...but I've never seen any organic seating like this by them.

Ahh, Jesgord
that is the chair. Many thanks. Barry, that flowered fabric is new, it is staying. The wall hanging is printed on jute, I will take a better picture of it when the sun comes out today. It was an ebay steal, I think no one else was paying attention that day!

Riki, I'm pretty sure your wall hanging is Robert Bushong for Tom Tru...Alas, I can't find the similar ones I've seen in the past on the intraweb (damn useless series of tubes!). Does your piece have any signatures or markings....front or back?
