Description

These are Zermatt Sling chairs, designed by Duncan Burke and Gunter Eberle for the Vecta Group in the early 1970s. The listed price includes one chair, and we have three available for purchase. The chairs were manufactured in the USA, and their design features a padded dark pink vinyl sling seat on a tubular chromed-steel frame. They are extremely well-constructed and are quite comfortable.

Each chair measures 30 inches deep, 28 inches wide, and 27 inches high. They have a seat height of 14 inches, and an arm height of 24 inches. There is a solid patina present, and there is some pitting visible on the tubular frames. There are some missing end caps at the ends of the frame. The vinyl shows fading and creasing, and there are spots evident on the material. Overall, these chairs are in good vintage condition with signs of age. Please see photos.

What should I expect when ordering an item with lead time?

Estimated lead times are shown under "Delivery", above. Read our shipping policy to learn more.

Lead times are estimated based on previous production times from our manufacturing partners, but lead times can change depending on availability and circumstances outside of Rarify's control.

For example: if purchasing an imported or made-to-order product, international shipping and import times depend on many factors. This includes US customs operations, global trade circumstances, and production facilities in other countries.

We will try to fulfill your order as quickly as possible. Our international freight forwarding partners help to take burden off of you during the process of importing; we appreciate your patience while your order is fulfilled.

Purchasing made-to-order is one of the most responsible ways to purchase, as it helps prevent furniture waste on our planet.

Vintage items are typically in-stock in the USA and ready to ship once purchased.

Do you deliver to NYC?

Yes, in-stock items can often be delivered to NYC quickly by our skilled couriers. Pieces are delivered by hand to your residence. This typically takes 1-2 weeks for items stocked at our warehouse in PA.

What is Freight shipping?

Freight shipping is how most furniture is shipped: secured by hand on a pallet and transported on a truck.

Furniture arrives curbside, often on the shipping pallet for protection.

Freight shipments can take longer and are more costly than regular mail, but help to prevent damage to furniture during delivery.
