About the Item
Rustic French Provincial Oak and Rush Armchair, 1940s
This French Provincial armchair from the 1940s embodies the charm of traditional rural craftsmanship, balancing rustic simplicity with enduring elegance. Constructed in solid oak, the frame is robust and architectural, softened by subtle hand-finished details. The oak has developed a beautiful patina over time, reflecting authenticity and age.
The seat and backrest are handwoven in natural rush, adding rich texture and warmth to the design. The rush weaving is both functional and inviting, providing comfort while enhancing the artisanal character of the piece. Its broad proportions and supportive back are complemented by solid armrests, making the chair suitable for both daily use and decorative placement.
Dimensions:
Height: 85 cm / 33.5 in
Width: 66 cm / 26 in
Depth: 59 cm / 23.2 in
Seat Height: 45 cm / 17.7 in
The French Provincial style reflects regional craftsmanship and the use of natural, honest materials. Chairs of this type were traditionally found in French country homes, valued for their durability and timeless charm. Today, they are admired for their ability to bring authenticity and warmth to both traditional and contemporary interiors.
This armchair remains in good vintage condition. The oak frame is sturdy and stable, while the rush seat and backrest show only light wear consistent with age. Its original materials and patina make it a genuine testament to mid-20th-century French design and craftsmanship.
Whether used as a single statement piece or paired with others, this oak and rush armchair from 1940s France captures the essence of French Provincial design—authentic, functional, and timeless.
