About the Item

Pair of Mid-Century French Folk Art Painted Beechwood Armchairs, France, 1960s A captivating pair of Mid-Century French folk art armchairs, handcrafted in France during the 1960s. Made from solid beechwood and adorned with exuberant, hand-painted detailing, these sculptural chairs are true conversation pieces. Their dynamic forms feature playful wavy slats across the backrest and seat, a stylistic nod to rustic whimsy with undertones reminiscent of the later Memphis design movement. Each chair displays a joyful palette of mismatched, yet harmonious colors—from sky blue, cherry red, and tangerine to lemon yellow and bubblegum pink—carefully arranged across the various components. This masterful disorder enhances their artistic appeal, transforming everyday furniture into visual art. The slightly irregular, handcrafted elements offer a delightful authenticity, a testament to their artisanal origins. The armrests follow the same exuberant design language, painted in mismatched hues and angled with expressive energy. Structurally sound and comfortably proportioned, these chairs serve equally well as functional seating or decorative statements in eclectic interiors, children's rooms, galleries, or creative workspaces. A gentle patina and light wear on the paint surface add vintage charm without compromising integrity—each mark a celebration of their storied past. These chairs are in excellent vintage condition and exhibit the kind of craftsmanship and individuality rarely found in mass-produced furnishings. Dimensions: Height: 87 cm Width: 61 cm Depth: 55 cm Seat height: 46 cm A rare pair that exemplifies the joyful creativity of French postwar folk design. Perfect for collectors, interior designers, or anyone seeking pieces that fuse utility, artistry, and personality.
