About the Item
Pair of Italian Art Deco Walnut Burl Stools with Original Velvet, Naples, 1930s – Museum Quality
This exceptional pair of Italian Art Deco stools, dating from the 1930s, represents the finest level of craftsmanship and design sophistication of the interwar period. Originating from a private villa in Naples, these pieces are completely original and preserved in outstanding, museum-quality condition.
Each stool - chair features a sculptural U-shaped silhouette executed in richly figured walnut burl, resting on a stepped plinth base and distinguished by a central decorative sphere beneath the seat — a hallmark of Italian Art Deco design that unites geometry, balance, and artistic movement. The walnut veneer displays spectacular book-matched grain patterns and a deep, warm patina developed naturally over time.
The stools retain their original jacquard velvet upholstery, woven in luxurious shades of burgundy, gold, and olive green, with a bold floral-geometric pattern typical of the high Italian decorative arts of the 1930s. The fabric remains in remarkable condition for its age, offering a rare glimpse into the authentic materiality and color palette of the era.
Every detail — from the precision of the joinery to the harmony of form and texture — reflects the refined aesthetics of Italy’s Art Deco period. These stools are not merely functional pieces but true sculptural works, suitable for display in a curated interior, design gallery, or museum collection.
