Walter Gropius Armchairs Dealer Sam Kaufman has around 60 Walter Gropius armchairs on offer, and brought four festive examples lacquered in purple, yellow, gray, and orange to his pared-down modern booth at the show (other highlights were a Marcel Breuer chaise longue and a collection of mid-century wood pepper grinders artfully displayed on brackets). Gropius designed the chair in 1951, around the end of his teaching career at Harvard and just before he returned to a full-time career as head of The Architect’s Collaborative. Kaufman points out that the chairs, available in the original maple or in a colorful lacquer finish, are extremely comfortable, even for long periods of sitting. Price depends on desired finish and quantity ordered. From Sam Kaufman Gallery Photo 8 of 14 in Finds From the LA Modernism Show by Dwell
