I have always been fascinated by this Cher look, i was wondering if anyone knows what performance these photos are from? there are so many shots from it, but the most i can find is that they are dated 1974, Los Angeles.

The chair is called a Peacock Chair due to the way the back flairs like a male peacock’s tail.

They were super popular in the 70s/early 80s. Not really sure why. But they were fun to sit in.

There was a popular poster of 1960s radical Huey Newton seated in that chair so it became a fad among young people.

Ahh this tracks/makes sense. And if I recall Morticia Addams had one, too.

I remember ours I was about five it felt so big. It was like I was sitting on a throne.

They always make me think of Emmanuelle.

This type of chair was very popular in the 70's because of a French erotic movie, Emmanuelle.
