About the Item
The Brutalist movement showcased how bold forms and the organic character of imperfect materials can beautifully transform into standout pieces through the creativity of skilled craftsmen. This pair of chairs might seem bold and rugged at first glance, however, at closer inspection, it is clear that the design is very well-thought-out; the lines are precisely sculpted, and the joinery is tight.
These armchairs reflect the deliberate simplicity, rawness and strength sought out by the creators of Brutalist pieces. Without any heavy ornamentation, the focus falls on the natural materials, the authenticity being celebrated, rather than disguised or embellished. This choice of wood and leather not only aligns with the organic principles of Brutalism, but it also contributes to the chairs' overall longevity in both form and function. It is evident that the maker of these chairs possessed great talent in cabinetmaking, and used high-quality materials that became even more appealing with the decades gone by. This is visible in the beautiful patina of the leather and the wood. The chairs’ proportions are harmonious, with high backs, low seats, and widening armrests, which in combination add to the visual interest of the design. The beauty of craftsmanship is evident in every detail - the chairs embody a sense of history and modernity, making them versatile and stylish additions to any space. Their form speaks to an appreciation of both past and present, offering a sophisticated and inviting seating option.
From architecture to individual pieces of furniture, materials, and colour palettes, the brutalist style seems to have earned a permanent spot on the décor trend list. Similarly, wood has never gone out of fashion, and pieces combining the movement and the material are only gaining popularity today. These solid wood armchairs are equally striking standing alone, or as a set in an interior with a medley of styles.
