<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Debora, post: 609376, member: 1476&quot;]Your chair appears to be a Made in Spain version of a Mexican chair from the 1940s.&nbsp; Credited to the architect Luis Barragán as the &quot;Miguelito&quot; chair but, according to this Architectural Digest article, designed by Cuban designer Clara Porset&nbsp; as the &quot;butaque&quot; chair.&nbsp; The magazine gives it as &quot;a Colonial-era hybrid of Spanish X-frame chairs and pre-Columbian ritual duhos.&quot; I would think it dates to the 1950s (because vintage Spanish items typically look older than they are.)</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/the-story-behind-the-design-of-the-iconic-butaque-chair" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/the-story-behind-the-design-of-the-iconic-butaque-chair" rel="nofollow">https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/the-story-behind-the-design-of-the-iconic-butaque-chair</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]179256[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
