European Armchair in White Upholstery, Europe 20th Century

About the Item

This beautiful armchair is a great representation of the quality and craftsmanship of European master cabinetmakers from the mid-20th century period. Cabinetmaker armchairs may seem similar at first sight, however each model’s individuality becomes evident upon closer inspection. In this chair’s case, its sheer volume and the welcoming, wing-back shape stand out immediately. Wingback chairs, originating in the 17th century, have maintained their popularity throughout most design eras to this day, and their inclusion in mid-century modern design is no surprise. The synthesis that this chair has achieved between form and function is outstanding, aesthetics and utility come together perfectly. The embracing back and the curved arms create a welcoming impression, while the back’s elongated or “winged” corners create visual interest. The generous padded armrests add another layer of relaxation for the sitter. This piece is upholstered in a premium bouclé fabric that further lends a luxurious impression. Thanks to this choice of material, the chair is soft and comfortable. From the frame to the upholstery, this armchair guarantees utmost quality and longevity. The short, rounded wooden feet ensure stability, and allow the chair’s body to shine as the focal point. This chair’s main decorative element is the design itself, unique yet timeless. Aided by quality materials and expert craftsmanship, this piece complements modern interiors through its elegance and classic beauty. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chair has been reupholstered recently in premium bouclé fabric. Each of our items can be reupholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
