Brutalist, stained beech dining chairs with octagonal tapered legs, curved in the back, France 1960s. These chairs are made entirely of wood. They are in excellent original condition. No defects, but it may show slight traces of use. The color of the wood is very warm and is suitable for many settings. It works perfectly in hospitality or corporate locations like hotels, restaurants, members' clubs, or coffee bars. When you choose for used modern design, you use what is already there, making it sustainable. You may not give the furniture a second, but even a third or fourth life. Mid-century design furniture is often a high-quality product that lasts several lives for a reason. Some furniture has a rich history, and the story is still visible or tangible with some. The signs of wear give a glimpse into the previous owner's life.
