Set of 8 French Modernist Dining Chairs in Stained Oak and Brass, 1960s

About the Item

Set of 8 French Modernist Dining Chairs in Stained Oak and Brass, 1960s This exceptional set of eight French dining chairs from the 1960s captures the essence of mid-century modernism with a raw, architectural edge. Crafted entirely from stained oak, each chair showcases a striking silhouette with angular lines, flared legs, and a bold circular cut-out in the backrest—an iconic design feature that balances the strong geometric frame with a touch of visual softness. One of the most remarkable elements of these chairs is the integrated armrest design. Sculptural and functional, the wooden armrests are mounted asymmetrically and subtly taper outward. Their placement and form give a floating effect, accentuating the chairs' modernist appeal while offering practical support. The armrests are connected to the backrest via slim, curved metal brackets, further highlighting the balance between rustic wood and industrial materials. This detail brings a dynamic, almost kinetic quality to the design. The backrests are affixed with exposed brass fasteners, reinforcing the raw, honest construction while adding a touch of refinement. The wood is richly stained, with a visible grain that enhances the chairs’ natural warmth. Wide, circular seats provide comfort without compromising the structured form, making these chairs as usable as they are visually compelling. These chairs would serve as standout pieces around a dining table or as sculptural accents in a gallery-like interior. They reflect a perfect harmony between mid-century functionality and French modernist artistry.
