(1960s)* One of the most iconic pieces of furniture to come out of the Witco studio. The sheer audacity of this Tiki masterpiece is a sight to behold. In fact, it was this audaciousness which led Elvis Presley to defy his fathers hatred of Witco and furnish a whole room in what is now known as the Jungle Room at Graceland. This throne, known in the catalog as the Voyager Chair is one of those pieces. On offer here is Svens personal den chair which is featured on the cover of our catalog. Sven purchased this chair along with several other pieces of furniture directly from the original owner in Memphis, Tennessee. In fact, that owner purchased his complete living room decor during the exact same period from the very same dealer, Elvis bought his collection for the Jungle Room! This chair is a sibling of the Jungle Room! Comes complete with the original sales receipt (pictured above) from Furniture Worldin Memphis. The Graceland archives has the exact same receipt for Elvis purchase in 1973. Interesting to note this chair sold for $438 in 1973! Excellent condition with replaced leopard fur upholstery. VG+. Approx 46x40x46
