About the Item

Brimming with Victorian-era charm, this exquisite side chair is a remarkable work of art. The frame is crafted from ebonized wood or papier-mâché, featuring a romantic heart-shaped back and gracefully turned legs. Its deep, black lacquered surface provides a dramatic canvas for the delicate, hand-painted gilt details and iridescent mother-of-pearl inlay that depict floral motifs. The airy, hand-woven cane seat offers a beautiful textural contrast, completing the elegant and sophisticated design. Its petite scale makes it an ideal accent piece tucked into a bedroom corner, as a chic vanity seat, or as a captivating sculptural object in an eclectic living room or entryway. Offered in great antique condition, this chair proudly displays a rich patina, with minor scuffs, chips, and blemishes that are a testament to its long and cherished history. Measuring 16" wide, 14.5" deep, and 33.5" high, its slender profile allows it to grace any space without overwhelming it. This piece is an exceptional addition for collectors and designers looking to enhance Victorian, Grandmillennial, or Eclectic interiors with a touch of authentic, historical beauty. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of decorative history—bring this enchanting chair home today!
