A Set of Five Brutalist Dining Chairs, Europe Second half of the 20th century
About the Item
Born amidst a period of architectural exploration, the Brutalist philosophy guides the design of this set of chairs. Seamlessly blending form and function with organic honesty, the chairs rely on the materials to convey its distinctive aesthetic.
These chairs exemplify a bold, raw design through their striking angular profile and powerful, sculptural presence. Each chair is crafted from solid oak, offering a heavy and grounded feel with rich, organic grain patterns. The chairs’ seats and backrests are made out of beautifully patinated leather, which maintains the sturdiness of the design through its thickness; thus providing an aesthetic and luxurious feel, while keeping functionality at the forefront. The leather offers the design a rugged yet refined look that complements the oak frame, and falls in line with the Brutalist pursuit of authenticity. The leather is fastened securely to the wooden structure with robust, oversized studs, lending a sense of toughness and industrial elegance — yet another element of Brutalism’s unapologetic boldness. At the same time, these details draw attention to the meticulous craftsmanship and the durability of the materials chosen by the maker. The carved wooden elements at the top of the chairs and on the front stretcher showcase the attention to detail given to each and every piece of this set.
These chairs blend functionality with artistry, evoking a sense of strength and permanence. Their distinct presence makes them an ideal statement set for any room, from a modern dining area to a studio or office. With a nod to Brutalist architecture and design, these chairs showcase a marriage of simplicity and power, creating an enduring visual impact in any interior.
