Club Chair in Charcoal Nubuck with Bronze Base and Cutouts – Mandel Bros

A remarkable and sculptural club chair with bronze base and cutouts, upholstered in dark charcoal nubuck leather. Dated 1938 and labeled “Mandel Bros Chicago”, this rare piece embodies the streamlined luxury of the late Art Deco period. Its angular armrests and open geometric cutouts framed in bronze create a striking architectural silhouette, while the plush nubuck upholstery adds a tactile richness and refined comfort.

Rumored to have been designed for a luxury railcar, the chair’s blend of aerodynamic form and opulent materials reflects the golden age of modern travel design. The subtly patinated bronze base supports a generously proportioned seat, making it both a statement piece and an inviting lounge chair. A truly unique Art Deco treasure for collectors and connoisseurs of exceptional 1930s design.
