About the Item

In the European design landscape of the mid-20th century, Brutalism emerged as a distinct architectural movement, influencing not only buildings but also furniture design. The 1950s witnessed the rise of Brutalist furniture pieces which often showcased the marriage of raw, unfinished materials and sculptural forms. Brutalist pieces, like this set, are celebrated today for their honest construction and sculptural poise. With a robust, organic form this set highlights the importance of celebrating natural materials. The chairs are made from thick planks of oak, which become the central point, both aesthetically and structurally. The backrests assert a dramatic, wing-back like profile through the flared ears, that taper in before flowing into the seat. This design choice creates a continuous, ergonomic form, that displays the beautifully unique grain of each piece of wood. Each chair rests on splayed front and rear legs joined by a sturdy H-stretcher. Thus, the chairs are strong and sturdy, ensuring their longevity. Not only is this set made to last in the practical sense, but their design will never go out of style, through the use of solid wood, creating a timeless look which outlives momentary trends. This set exudes tranquillity through its stylish yet understated shapes and forms. These chairs can easily slot around a dining table while being able to command attention when viewed on their own. Today, Brutalist furniture pieces compliment a variety of interior spaces. This style has made a remarkable comeback, capturing the essence of a bygone era while still resonating with contemporary sensibilities. Authentic, raw and bold, this set marries artistic craftsmanship with everyday utility, promising decades of inspiring service ahead. Condition: In good vintage condition.
