Set of Four High-Back Chairs in Walnut and Mustard Wool, France, 1970s

About the Item

With their totemic posture and rigorous symmetry, this set of four high-back chairs appears as a quiet procession—monolithic yet supple, sculptural yet humane. The pronounced verticality of the backrests is softened by an inset wool panel in ochre-mustard, whose central stripe seems to ripple down the spine like a textile column of light. Attributed to a French atelier working in the spirit of postwar modernism, the chairs embody a Brutalist elegance. Their silhouettes suggest both the ecclesiastical and the architectural—recalling the austerity of monastery furniture, tempered by the warmth of domesticity. The joinery is proudly exposed, with visible tenons and inlays in darkened timber—testaments to an artisanal hand and structural clarity. Crafted from solid walnut, the wood is finished in a deep, chocolate patina that plays against the textured vibrancy of the upholstery. The concave back panels gently taper toward the seat, offering ergonomic support within a geometrically assertive form. Wear consistent with age and use. Meticulously preserved by Jada to maintain their structural integrity while honoring their original patina and textile. These chairs offer more than function—they anchor a space with sculptural gravity, whether surrounding a dining table or standing alone in contemplative symmetry. Available for private acquisition. Inquiries from discerning collectors are welcome.
