Set of Two Reconstruction Walnut Armchairs, 1940s, France

About the Item

Captivating Set of Two French Reconstruction Walnut Armchairs with Colonial Inspiration - Preserved Authentic Patina Presenting a stunning set of two French Reconstruction armchairs, showcasing a delightful fusion of Art Deco design and colonial inspirations. Crafted in elegant walnut wood, these armchairs feature generously sized woven seats and caned backrests, offering both comfort and beauty. The chairs reflect the design influences and historical context of the French reconstruction era. Designed in the 1950s, these armchairs boast a solid walnut structure, providing a warm and inviting appearance. The colonial inspiration adds an exotic touch to the design, while the Art Deco elements pay homage to France's rich cultural history. Originating from a second home in the south of France, these armchairs have been lovingly preserved, carrying with them the charm and elegance of a bygone era. We have chosen to maintain the beautiful and authentic patina, which further enhances the character of these unique pieces. Though they exhibit minor instability due to their age, they remain a timeless addition to any living space, celebrating the union of French Reconstruction and colonial design sensibilities.
