Description
This is a Koken Barber Chair, from either the late 20s or early 30s. My brother in law's - a barber - was given this chair by his father, also a barber. His father made a hobby of collecting and restoring old barber chairs, and this was one of the finest. It has been rechromed, reupholstered and bolts and other small parts replaced if needed with parts from other similar chairs. It's the double round version, with base and seat both circular. All hydraulics and mechanics function as intended! I have plenty of pictures, for those interested!
