About the Item
Set of 4 French Oak Alpine Tripod Chairs, 1950s
This charming set of four oak tripod chairs comes from France and dates to the 1950s, representing the timeless appeal of traditional Alpine craftsmanship. Each chair features a sculptural backrest with a classic clover-shaped cutout—a nod to regional folk design that adds both charm and character.
Crafted from solid oak, these chairs are beautifully aged with a warm, rich patina that highlights the natural grain of the wood. The tripod design, with three subtly splayed legs, ensures stability and adds a distinctive, rustic silhouette. The rounded seat and ergonomically curved back offer a comfortable sitting experience while maintaining a refined, minimal profile.
Ideal as dining chairs, side chairs, or decorative accents, these pieces blend seamlessly with a range of interiors—from country-style homes and chalet-inspired spaces to modern, eclectic environments. Their authentic construction and understated elegance make them a versatile and stylish choice.
The set is in very good vintage condition, with light wear consistent with age and use. Each chair retains its original character, making this a rare and cohesive set for collectors and design enthusiasts alike.
