About the Item

Art Deco style chairs labelled by Restall Brown and Clenel, late 20th century in date. Art Deco is a style of visual arts, architecture and design that first appeared in France just before World War I. It combined modernist styles with fine craftsmanship and rich materials. During its heyday, Art Deco represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress. Among the Art Deco participants that posterity has chosen are furniture designers Jacques Adnet, Jacques-Emile Ruhlmann and Maurice Dufrene, Jules Leuleu, Victor Horta and Eliel Saarinen, designers specialized in glass René Lalique and Émile Gallé as well as couturiers Erté and Paul Poiret. This set of eight dining room chairs was designed in the late 20th century. The chairs retain their original mother of pearl upholstery, featuring walnut frames. Finish: Hand finished Materials: walnut Condition: In excellent condition, very minor nicks in finish, please see photos for confirmation. Founded in 1905, there are few companies with a heritage as prestigious as Restall Brown & Clennell. Experts in designing, crafting and selling top quality traditional style furniture, their luxurious handmade designs now grace many national and international city institutions, palaces, private residences, embassies and 6 star hotels. Restall Brown & Clennell also apply their extensive knowledge to yacht interiors. Wych elmwood is prized by craftsmen for its coloring, its crazy grain, its 'partridge-breast' or 'catspaw' markings, and, when worked, its occasional iridescent greenish sheen or 'bloom'. The bosses on old trees produce the characteristic fissures and markings of 'burr elm' wood.
