About the Item

Monumental 1930s French Wingback Armchair in Ivory Bouclé with Sculpted Walnut Frame. A bold and exceptional example of 1930s French design, this monumental wingback armchair captures the elegance and craftsmanship of the era with an unmistakable sculptural presence. Featuring a dramatically high back and exaggerated winged sides, this piece is both functional and architectural—designed to envelop and impress. Upholstered in a luxurious ivory bouclé fabric, the chair offers a rich tactile experience and a soft, inviting surface. The creamy tone of the bouclé enhances the chair’s light, airy feel, while providing subtle contrast to the warm, sculpted walnut frame. Smooth, organically curved armrests and tapered legs showcase expert woodworking and the timeless appeal of natural materials. Its generous proportions make it a true statement piece: Height: 116 cm (45.7 in.) Width: 90 cm (35.4 in.) Depth: 100 cm (39.4 in.) Seat Height: 40 cm (15.7 in.) These substantial dimensions give the chair an imposing presence, while its ergonomic form ensures exceptional comfort. The enveloping wings and deep seat create a private and cozy seating experience—perfect for reading, relaxing, or sophisticated lounging. Recently reupholstered in high-quality ivory bouclé, the armchair combines vintage charm with contemporary softness. The walnut frame has been gently restored, preserving its patina and structural integrity without compromising authenticity. Whether placed as a focal point in a living room, library, or studio space, this armchair strikes a balance between dramatic scale and quiet elegance. A collector’s piece and designer favorite, it reflects the refined transition from Art Deco to early modernist aesthetics. A rare opportunity to own a monumental, museum-worthy icon of French design—exquisite in both form and material.
