Fab G Plan Teak Housemaster Chair Re-Upholstered In Camira Wool

G Plan early 1970’s Housemaster teak swivel chair with completely new upholstery.

The original G Plan Housemaster chair was launched in 1970/71. It looks really stunning and stylish from particularly from the back. It’s extremely comfortable and we’ve sold about a dozen in the last 5 or 6 years. Some like this one we’ve completely copied the original upholstery, others like another we have for sale has been modified. We see a few of these but only buy them when the wood and the chrome is in really good condition which not all are. As you can imagine they were expensive when new so they weren’t made in vast numbers and unlike the G Plan “Blofeld” chair it would be extremely difficult and prohibitively costly to reproduce today.

This Housemaster has had all new foam cushions to meet current UK standards. It is upholstered in a lovely wool from the Camira Blazer range, colour is a shade of green they call Ambleside.

The G Plan Housmaster chair was designed by Keith Wilkins who was a G Plan in-house designer but surprisingly no relation to Victor Wilkins who was their best known designer in the 1960’s and 1970’s. We’ve sold a number of these super comfortable chairs over the years.

Width 90cms, seat height 40cms, back height 84cms. Total depth 98cms

Condition
The chrome is in lovely vintage condition. The teak laminates have been cleaned and oiled and are looking great. As with all vintage furniture you do have to expect to see some minor signs of wear if you look very closely.

We’ve made totally new replica cushions that unlike the originals are to current UK Fire Regulations and used a lovely wool by Camira.
