Turquoise 'Model 103' Swivel Chairs by Maurice Burke for Burke Inc.
Designer: Maurice Burke
Maker: Burke Inc - USA
Year: 1960s
Condition Report: Good vintage condition. Fibreglass seats are in great shape, no cracking or structural damage, just a few paint chips to the rear. Bases are in good shape too. Both Swivel, one self centres, one doesn’t.
.
Drawing inspiration from the classic tulip chairs and table designed by Eero Saarinen for Knoll just a few years prior, the desire for a more playful futuristic style of furniture quickly gained traction in the US and abroad.
With a solid construction of fibreglass and aluminium built to last a lifetime, this pair has aged beautifully with a fresh coat of paint applied at some point, bringing them to life in this great turquoise tone.
Claiming the title of the Starship Enterprises dining chair on the 1960s Star Trek TV show, the design has maintained a cult status among collectors ever since.
