About the Item

Art Deco, one of the most influential design movements of the early 20th century, reached its peak in the 1930s, merging elegance and modernity with a focus on both style and function. Reflecting the need for escapism and innovation of the interwar era, Art Deco transformed furniture design with its streamlined shapes, luxurious materials, and attention to symmetry and detail. The movement became synonymous with bold geometric forms and visual richness, as it drew influence from previous movements like Cubism and Art Nouveau. This pair of armchairs embodies the sleek sophistication of their period. Their silhouette exudes geometric precision - a hallmark of the Art Deco aesthetic - to highlight both the angularity and soft curves that tie this design together. The squared backs showcase the geometry, while the gently rounded arms soften the overall design, balancing the structure with subtle fluidity. The standout feature of the model is the wooden overlay featured on the armrests, which follows the curvature from the back to the feet of the chairs. These wooden accents are not only visually appealing but also add a sense of practicality and further increase the longevity of the pair, ensuring the armrests remain pristine and functional for years to come. The legs of these chairs tie in the wooden elements, complimenting the chairs’ bodies. The front legs also introduce a unique adornment to the look through their carved shape. Upholstered in a beautiful off-white fabric, the chairs offer an understated luxurious look, combining versatility with a touch of inviting comfort, through the softness of the material. Ideal as a stylish addition to any modern interior, this pair of armchairs effortlessly combines sophistication with practicality. Mixing thought-out proportions with intentional material choices, these chairs add a touch of iconic glamour and timeless design to any living space.‎ Condition: In good vintage condition.
