I ran across this Kroehler Chair offered online via Hindsvik.etsy.com. It got me thinking, how cool is this chair and can these mid-century models still be out there.

I came across a write up on the Kroehler Manufacturing Co’s past in Naperville on the Encyclopedia of Chicago.

Considering I live a stone’s throw from the building, I thought it be in my best interest to follow up on some local history.

Interesting facts from the article:

• 1902, Peter E. Kroehler bought the Naper ville Lounge Co.
• 1940s, Kroehler was the second-largest furniture maker in the United States.
• 1970s, closing its historic Naperville factory in 1978 and ending its operations in the area.
