• NORMAN CHERNER (AMERICAN 1920-1987)
  NORMAN CHERNER (AMERICAN 1920-1987) UPHOLSTERED ARMCHAI...NORMAN CHERNER (American 1920-1987) UPHOLSTERED ARMCHAIR, "Cherner Armchair," PROBABLY PLYCRAFT, 1960s, the walnut veneered single molded plywood backrest and seat, mounted with slightly twisted curving arms composed from one continuous bentwood panel and raised on tapering rectangular bentwood legs ending on short circular clear plastic caps, padded throughout and covered in a later red upholstery, verso glue residue and faint shadow from oval Plycraft label now lacking. Height: 31 1/4" Width: 25 1/2" Depth: 22" Note: Paul Goodman owner of Plycraft located outside of Boston transitioned his WWII molded plywood production technology into a market that served the expanding building and furnishings boom of the commercial sector. It is interesting to note that the majority of Plycraft Cherner armchairs from the 1960s utilize domed slot head screws with washers, except for the underside center which is a hexagonal bolt on threaded screw with washer. The legs appear to be ten layers of plywood and are mounted at their ends with the clear plastic/acrylic caps. The Cherner Chair was produced by Plycraft, which included the upholstered version until the 1970s. Condition: Chair was reupholstered in this red fabric in 1991, has buildup from use along crest rail and arms, seat red piping trim on one side of seat is missing a 3" section, underside of seat has handwritten black felt tip inscription and due date 5/21/91, also blue wax penciled three times "P26 / 102A." The legs appear to be in original condition with scuff marks, scratches, buildup, and original varnish flaking or worn in areas throughout, leg tips are faded, a bit dry, and clear plastic caps exhibit wear from years of use. The legs do not appear to have been restored. As stated in description the Plycraft oval label was removed but residual glue and the shadow outline is faint but visible. As well its' location between the two front legs close to where they meet is where it was normally positioned and where the shadow/glue residue is found.
