About the Item
A set of six original French Mid-Century Modernist tall dining chairs featuring angular lines with a curved moustache shaped top, elegant tapered front cabriole legs and splay back legs.
The chairs are streamline in overall shape, featuring tall backs with an artistic, subtle narrowing towards the top. They feature unique stepped nickel metal decorative accents on the top crest.
