About the Item
What a wonderfully charming set of chairs we have the pleasure of offering you!
These highly original English Victorian chairs feature a wooden frame and a papier-mâché backrest. They are beautifully decorated and inlaid with mother of pearl, giving them their unique and irresistible appearance. These chairs wear their age with pride, and even the upholstery remains original.

As you might expect, these lightweight chairs are somewhat fragile, and daily use is no longer recommended.
This is a unique opportunity for enthusiasts to acquire such a set in its original condition.
