We've admired the Acapulco chair—a modernist design classic that originated in Mexico in the 1950s—for a while now; we recently learned via Design Sponge that Greenpoint Works, a collaborative furniture-making group, is producing the chairs in Brooklyn using locally sourced steel for the frames and American-made vinyl cording. The Acapulco Chair is available in black or white for $350 or in blue, yellow, pink, or green for $400; custom colors also available. In the UK, the Acapulco Chair is available through Bodie and Fou for £345 (the rocking version is £375).
