About the Item

These chairs were created in 1930s Europe and beautifully showcase the unique characteristics of Art Deco, an era-defining movement in furniture design. European cabinetmakers embraced this style, and in the years between the World Wars, produced some of the most exciting and innovative furniture the world had seen. The structure of these chairs is composed of wood with a beautiful veneer that displays charmingly unique patterns. The veneer is enhanced by the distinct form, especially by the curves, with the half circle shaped back and arms. The concave design enables the structures to stand on the elongated backs. This detail further adds to the charm of the model. At its inception, Art Deco was orientated towards the luxury market and paid little notice to costs and retail prices. Pieces were one of a kind; the era’s designers considered themselves the modern iteration of classic furniture makers. Their artistic approach was anchored by characteristic European refinement expressed by graceful forms and traditional methods like veneering and marquetry as seen in these chairs. From above the seats look as though they fit snugly in between the ‘floating’ armrests. The main charm of these chairs however, are the seat cushions upholstered in longhair sheepskin. The cascading fabric creates an interesting, luxurious look with an edge. As these chairs show, European furniture designers’ artistic approach was anchored by Art Deco refinement expressed through graceful forms and traditional methods. With a distinctive look and unforgettable characteristics, from the sculpted edges to the upholstery, this pair of chairs can leave its mark in every interior. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chairs have been reupholstered recently in a premium longhair fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
