About the Item

These dining chairs share great similarities with the designs of Afra and Tobia Scarpa and Mobil Girgi. This is a playful design that follows the rule of a dining chair. Meaning that its aesthetics have to mainly be jugded when seen from the back, positioned at the table. Following this notion, we will start at the back with the foot. This is cylinder with a slight bulging at the ends. Two wavy lacquered walnut wooden planks protrude from the wooden cylinder, which form not only the base but also the backrest. The flame drawing in the wood also goes along in vertical direction. At the top of the backrest, a wooden semicircle has been applied as a kind of ornament and also serves as reinforcement. Its wooden frame is rounded at the front legs and we see faceted edges at the back legs. At the bottom and side we see a classic and beautiful dovetail connection, connecting the backrest to the rest of the wooden construction. The black leather seats have been completely reupholstered and the seating comfort has therefore been significantly improved. Conditionally, this set of chairs is fully in accordance with age and use; with scratches and usage traces.

Set of Four High-Back Chairs in Walnut and Mustard Wool, France, 1970s
Located in Kaštel Sućurac, Splitsko-dalmatinska županija
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...
