Description
Leather upholstery, porcelain base with orange trimming, nickel plating. All parts intact including head rest. Has dual pump handles (one located on either side of chair-haven't seen that on any of the other Emil chairs I've seen). Barber has in his shop just as another seat for patrons. Looking for an appraisal (I expect something VERY general since limited info is available) and also more info on this company, which seems to be impossible to find.

Re: Emil J. Paidar Barber Chair
HI, I too have a very similar chair. Besides the words found on the foot-rest, I am unable to find a serial number, model, or any other distinguishing markings. I have recently posted an add on my local Craig’s List, but am not sure what to put as an asking price....
I was wondering if you had an estimate value for your chair, or any other information that may be of any significance.....any thing would be much appreciated..!.. Here is a link to the, currently posted, Craig’s List Add of my chair(including pictures).
