A Chair Mystery Solved?

Unknown Steel Chair with Chrome Finish 4

Chair by Tony Paul Raymore

Remember me showing you this mystery steel chair frame with chrome finish way back in July 2008?

Recently I got an e-mail from Bill Johnson of Retro Vegas who believes he found a bit more about this chair over at an auction site Live Auctioneers who attributed this chair to Tony Paul / Raymore.

However a comment to the post attributes the chair to Edward Higgins…He has one with gold finish and original seating. I hope he reads this and provides a photo of his one.

Ah there is a site devoted to Tony Paul who is alive and kicking at 90: Tony Paul Design and it is a blog. So I asked them to comment here.

One of my readers had asked whether anybody would know more details of this interesting steel chair with chrome tube finish. Anybody?
