About the Item

Characterised by bold shapes, rich materials, and luxurious aesthetics, Art Deco transformed the way we perceive interior spaces. The era praised the fusion of form and function, an ethos that is beautifully exemplified by this 20th century European armchair. Defined by its clean lines and natural materials, the chair features an angular wooden structure that emphasizes functionality while maintaining its timeless elegance. The back is straight and streamlined, with a rectangular backrest offering support to the sitter, reflecting the geometric tendencies of Art Deco. At the same time, the warm stain of the wood enhances the visible grain, lending the chair a touch of organic sophistication. The armrests, gently arched, introduce an angular element to the otherwise balanced frame. The cushioned seat, upholstered in a sandy, textured fabric compliments the warmth of the wood and provides a calm yet inviting feel. Finally, the four straight legs balance the chair, preserving the open design, while maintaining structure and stability. There is a subtle interplay of texture and tone present that allows the chair to seamlessly complement a range of interior styles, from classic vintage settings to contemporary spaces that value timelessness. This armchair, is a striking example of the movement’s commitment to elegance and modernity, packaged in restrained sophistication. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chair has been reupholstered recently in a premium fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
