Retro Office Chair - Swivel 'Propeller' Base

The label on the chair identifies the manufacturer as Harter Corporation, of Sturgis, Michigan, a company best known for manufacturing institutional, hospital, medical, and office furniture. Harter produced seating for universities and government offices from the mid-20^th century onward.

 This is a swivel task/office chair manufactured approximately 1968-1980, Model 468. It has a cast aluminum four-star base, heavy-duty steel seat frame, thick vinyl upholstery and industrial construction characteristic of their office furniture. The cast aluminum 4-leg pedestal base has a swivel mechanism and heavy duty height adjustment. Molded aluminum arm supports with padded armrests with thick commercial-grade vinyl upholstery. Robust construction-built for decades of service. Love these vintage finds!
