About the Item
Drawn with the quiet confidence of a single, unbroken line, this pair of French barrel-back lounge chairs distills the spirit of 1930s design into a composition of curved mass and attenuated verticals. The enveloping backs unfurl in a restrained arc, sheltering the sitter in a gesture at once intimate and architectural. Three leather-clad legs descend like sculpted pillars, their tapering profiles lifting the upholstered form with a rhythmic, almost musical lightness.
Echoing the codes of early French Modernism and the transitional phase between Art Deco and rationalist design, these chairs resonate with the disciplined sensuality seen in the works of André Arbus and Jean-Michel Frank. The clarity of their gesture—the balance between structure and ornament, geometry and warmth—marks them as descendants of a uniquely French synthesis of classicism and modern innovation.
The internal frames are executed in walnut, lending an invisible strength to the supple outer skin. The seating surfaces are upholstered in a woven textile of fine geometric pattern, its quiet grey palette evoking the tonal restraint favored in sophisticated interiors of the period. In contrast, the legs are fully wrapped in deep brown leather, adding both a tactile density and a sculptural focus to the composition.
Wear consistent with age and use. Meticulously preserved by Jada to maintain its structural integrity while honoring its original patina.
Sculptural yet understated, these chairs offer a visual counterpoint in refined interiors—anchoring a salon or study with their lyrical form and material richness.
Available for private acquisition. Inquiries from discerning collectors are welcome.
