Industrial Max Tonk Factory Office Swivel Chair

A completely intact early 20th century Max Tonk “twisted wire” factory office revolving chair or stool fabricated by the tonk mfg. co., chicago, il. The fully functional backrest features an unusual supporting bracket consisting of bent solid steel contoured rods held firmly in place by ornamental friction joint clamps with adjustable dial or wheel. The highly ornate central axis, which houses the threaded rod that raises and lowers the swivel seat, features a rope pattern motif below a beaded border platform. The out swept bent steel wire legs with hooped feet are structurally sound and stable.
