About the Item

This refined pair of French armchairs from the 1950s showcases the understated elegance of mid-century design. Crafted from solid oak, the chairs feature beautifully sculpted armrests that extend fluidly from the backrest and gently curve at the front, creating a welcoming and harmonious silhouette. The slightly splayed legs enhance the sculptural quality of the frames while providing a poised and stable stance. Seats and backrests are handwoven in natural straw, adding warmth, texture, and contrast to the smooth oak structure. Timeless in character and rich in material presence, this pair is an excellent example of French post-war seating, ideal for collectors and interiors seeking authentic vintage design with enduring appeal. Condition: In good vintage condition, with wear consistent with age and use. The oak frames show minor surface wear and a warm, natural patina developed over time. The straw weaving on both the seats and backrests is well preserved, structurally sound, and retains its original character. The chairs have been carefully cleaned and gently refreshed, with full respect for their original materials and craftsmanship. Overall, the pair presents beautifully, maintaining both functional integrity and authentic mid-century charm. AMS Gallery guarantees the originality and authenticity of each item in our collection. All conservation and restoration processes are carried out by experienced craftsmen, with great respect for the original design and materials.
