The Toledo Metal Furniture, Co. began as a bicycle maker in 1897 and was founded by the brothers Joe and Clement Uhl in Toledo, Ohio. After the dawning of the automobile, with bicycle demand dropping, the Uhl’s began producing furnishings for commercial and industrial use in about 1910. This chair is a reproduction of the classic vintage-inspired draftsman’s chair. It pairs industrial styling with the warmth of wood seating. The bent steel base is constructed with a spring-loaded clamp and steel pole for height adjustment. The chair’s back adjusts separately, and the seat features a swivel mechanism. This version is in a brass finish.
