Jens Risom Chairs From Masters Championship
Hi all. I bought these chairs a while back. The girl I bought them from said her grandfather bought them from a Masters golf tournament years ago. For those of you who aren't fimalliar with the Masters, it's a golf tournament where the champion is awarded a green jacket to wear.
While I love golf, I was thinking of reupholstering the fabric. Would this be foolish? Has anyone ever seen Jens Risom sold at a golf tournament?
Its more likely that these...
Its more likely that these were used at the tournament and then later sold as opposed to being sold at the tournament (unless I misunderstood you).
If you ever plan on reselling them, I would definitely keep the original 'masters' green upholstery. These might be interesting for a golf/sports collector.
I think that the seller was confused.
I've attended many a Master's Tournament over the years, and have never seen anything except a poly-blend sport coat "color-coated" in the traditional "Master's" green for the event. Perhaps excluding any tacky table decor, etc But I'm usually quite toasted whist sitting in the vip section, and I could be confused.... Nice chair, however.
Thanks for the advice guys....
Thanks for the advice guys. Good point roxxy,I haven't thought of that.
I guess I'll keep them as is. I gave the wood a nice coat of wax and there looking pretty sharp.
