We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1960’s.
A FABULOUS quartet of quintessential Mid-Century Modern magnificence!!! WOW!! This is a set of four vintage dining chairs by Foster-McDavid comprised of gorgeous walnut frames and the original cobalt blue faux Naugahyde leather upholstery on the seats and backs. They have high tapered backs with a wonderfully unusual design as the fabric wraps over the top and extends about a quarter of the way down the walnut back… it’s really a stunning feature! Also, the straight, square tapered back legs extend about a quarter of the way up the lower back of the chairs as one piece… also a stunning feature!! We found a quote online from Robert Foster’s son, Robert Foster Jr stating that this design may be Spectrum or Intaglio however, we were unable to confirm that information. There are other styles of these dining chairs, but this particular style was not produced in the quantity as the others, so these are rarer. They are going to look incredible at your Mid-Century Modern dining table, game table, or breakfast nook (we have several listed here for sale that would pair wonderfully, check them out!)
Foster-McDavid was a Tampa furniture company started in the early 1950’s by Robert Foster and Joe McDavid. According to online posts by Foster’s son Robert Foster Jr, Joe McDavid ran the company and Robert Foster designed the furniture. Apparently, Herbert Saiger designed some pieces as well. They had showrooms in High Point and Miami where they sold to interior designers and retailers. The company was sold in 1975.
High quality, reputable designer & manufacturer, impeccable style, and brilliant-ly blue!! This set of 4 dining chairs by Foster-McDavid have it ALL!!! Don’t wait! Make them YOURS!!!

- Broyhill Brasilia Dining Chairs Original Set of 10 Mid-Century Modern, 1962-1970By Broyhill BrasiliaLocated in Topeka, KSIconic Mid-Century Modern Broyhill Brasilia original set of 10 dining chairs, 2 arm and 8 sides. Dark walnut and new dark blue/black upholstery. In fabulous vintage condition apart from one side chair that had a broken back rail that has been repaired by our experienced staff. Please see photos, circa 1962-1970. Their iconic sculpted design inspired by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer is extremely desirable and sought after. Finding an original set of ten is rare! They have been re-upholstered in a fabric that is an ongoing debate here as to whether it is blue or black. Depending on the light some of us say blue and some say black, but either way, they are absolutely stunning. They are comprised of deep sultry walnut and the backs of the chairs bear the elegant triple Brasilia arches. Their high backs, tapered legs and sturdy frame unify their comfort. These will be wonderful encompassing any dining room table. The Brasilia Collection is Mid-Century Modern in style but borders on Brutalist although it would be beautiful in an Industrial or modern country setting as well. It is no coincidence that The Brasilia collection design is very architectural in style. It was introduced to the public at the Seattle World’s Fair in 1962 and drew its inspiration from the architecture of the newly created and majestic Capital of Brazil, Brasilia. The brochure for Brasilia by Broyhill Premier says…….”Brasilia…the city…by its daring and beauty has revolutionized architecture and opened vast new horizons of design. From this inspired dream, Broyhill Premier drew inspiration for the furniture grouping which bears the Fine young name: BRASILIA.” This line was extremely popular with the furniture buying public and is still sought out today. Broyhill ended production of this successful line sometime in the 1970s...Category
