Forgeries & Attributions folding chair, X-Chair No Comments
These attributed pieces were found in a gallery:
- The X-Chair, attributed to Don Shoemaker. This model never existed during the SEÑAL, S.A. production days. As long as I know who designed these chairs. He used as a model the original Don S. Shoemaker design of a very small folding chair in chip-carved Brazilian walnut wood from the 60′s. (see picture below)
- This “Daybed” attributed to Don Shoemaker. This piece of furniture of Art Deco inspiration, I think even Don would have been surprised to see what “he produced” as he never designed any kind of daybeds! Although it is a nice looking thing and credit should be awarded to the lady who designed it a year ago!
