My dad bought this in 76 and used it in his dorm. It's been in our family since and well loved, but it's time to say goodbye. The ottoman needs a little TLC, but it's a great sitting chair. The cushions have been recovered (I had a white sheet over the cushions cause I didn't like the pink, and it looked really nice) $15 OBO. Pick up only.

ok...would anyone just WANT this for free? Seriously. As much as it pains me to let it go, for free, I'm ready to get it out of my house.

My dad said it wasn't a TEU, but a man from Raleigh custom built it in a similar style as TEU back in the 70s. He purchased it from a local furniture store off Salisbury St. He said the difference btw this and the TEU is there is a casing around the frame on his chair.

didnt This End Up start in Raleigh? I think the owner of the company lives in that big ass house around Leesville

point being, maybe it was a prototype made by the owner of TEU before the company took off, shit could be worth MILLIONS
