Pioneers of outdoor furniture, Brown Jordan channeled the carefree California spirit and helped create a new living space in American life: the patio. In 1945, Robert Brown, an industrial engineer, and Hubert Jordan met in Pasadena, and sold their first line of furniture via Bullock's Wilshire. The store ran an ad and by the end of the day, it had sold out completely. After the war, the duo followed up with a new Mid-Century silhouette collection, with aluminum and vinyl fabric. Brown Jordan's innovative designs became a symbol of a new kind of leisure. In the 1950s, their furniture became popular across the country. Their lounge chair was chosen by the Department of Commerce to be exhibited at the 1959 World's Fair in Tokyo. In 1968, it was featured at the Cooper Hewitt museum in New York. Modern metallics, powder coating and weather-ready materials became some of Brown Jordan's hallmarks, heralding durable, design forward furniture that developed into the modern idea of outdoor living. Minor scratching on the top backs/mesh may be repaired by a Brown Jordan showroom or by using paint #35 White.
