About the Item

This handcrafted sculptural armchair was made in Germany during the 1920s and reflects an expressive approach to form and material. The chair is constructed from walnut and olive wood, combining two richly grained woods that give the piece a strong visual and tactile presence. Its curved armrests and elevated backrest emphasize its sculptural character while maintaining functional use as a seating piece. The chair was handmade using the remains of old farm implements, a process that adds both historical depth and material authenticity to the object. This reuse of agricultural elements reflects a practical and resourceful approach to craftsmanship typical of the period. The high backrest features distinctive rectangular cutout details, introducing rhythm and structure to the overall composition while reducing visual weight. Each element of the chair reveals the hand of the maker, from the shaping of the wood to the assembly of the components. The result is a unique piece that stands between functional furniture and sculptural object. Suitable as an accent chair, the armchair works well in interiors that value craftsmanship, material history, and early 20th century European design.
