Here is a little more information about the bent wood chairs, the Cherner chairs in the office and living room.

CHERNER Armchair

The 1958 molded plywood armchair by Norman Cherner, a midcentury icon found in design collections worldwide, is now available to a new generation of furniture collectors. Reissued in exacting detail from the original drawings and molds, the armchair combines the best of both molded plywood and solid bent wood construction. Like the original, it's made entirely in the U.S.A.

I think that the brown chair is a copy of this one. I know th leg design is different but the shape is correct.

I don't believe it's an egg chair, MS. The top is similar but it is less concave, and the seat doesn't have the bowl shape.

This is a really tough one.

The dining table is interesting because it's lovely but doesn't get used. So it fits that the dining chairs don't look that comfy. A set piece.

The chairs are comfy.....I sat in them at a store and they cradled your fanny... :TMI:

Okay I know that I had the names of the set designers, what do you say we try and contact one of them and just ask? Lilly inspired that thought...

:snicker: I was wondering about that, Lucy -- thanks for the first hand info. Although I guess it would all defend on the size of one's fanny. :whistle:

The set decorator is Chris Marsteller and the production designer is Alfred Sole. I've actually been trying to dig up contact information for them. If you want to tackle this, MS -- go for it!

Okay, another day of searching and looking :noway: for that blasted chair with no luck is making contacting them look better and better all the time. I am not sure I can sound even half way intelligent if I do get in touch with either of them... :blushing:

Regarding the fireplace being on Veronica Mars, I think I saw it in Logan's pool house but I won't swear to that. That episode is later in the first season.

Chris was delightfully polite and kind to take the time to provide me with the information. If anyone is interested in buying one he gave two references of folks that have been particularly helpful.

It was wonderful to talk to him! :blushing:
