Early 20th Century Captain's Chair from Bali with Slatted Wood and Loop Arms

About the Item

An antique Indonesian captain's chair from the early 20th century, with slatted wood, pierced splat and looping arms. This antique Indonesian captain's chair from the early 20th century is a standout piece with its slatted wood construction, intricately pierced splat, and elegantly looping arms. Originating from the Indonesian island of Bali, this chair features a slanted back adorned with a central radiating star motif, framed by concentric half-spheres. The design boasts grand looping arms supported by turned supports, encircling a rectangular slatted wooden seat. The chair is supported by four sturdy legs; the front ones display a tapering cylindrical shape, while the rear ones are more linear with a slight saber bend, adding an air of sophistication. While this listing is for a single chair, priced at $675, we have several chairs available, each with slightly different stains. We offer the option to match finishes for those interested in acquiring a pair or set, allowing for a harmonious integration into your home. Ideal for use in a variety of settings within your home, from the dining room to a study, or as an accent piece, this chair not only provides functional seating but also serves as a fascinating conversation piece, inviting the rich cultural heritage of Indonesia into your living space.
