Witco Red Faux Fur Cedar Wood Carved Shield Knight and Spears
About the Item
Incredible original Witco carved cedar wood Medieval shield. This shield is in time capsule quality original condition. The original red faux fur has a brilliant color with no fading, no stains. Collectors will instantly recognize the chainsaw carved, richly figured cedar wood that distinguishes Witco. The shield is crowned with ornate carving. The medallion at center features a knight’s profile silhouette framed by two horses. The knight is highlighted with apropos silver paint. Two spears criss-cross the shield with gold colored metal chain dangling from each side. We had the piece arranged above a fireplace which seemed more that fitting. This is the ultimate man-cave accessory. LARPers and Dungeons and Dragons fans, you’ve met your match. We also have a Witco dining set, armless chairs and armchairs in the same red faux fur fabric (sold separate). Create an envious Renaissance theme room by adding more pieces of the collection.
We also have a Witco sofa, group of cat sculptures, leopard arm chairs and alligator stool. All of these items are sold separately. Contact us if you are interested in buying additional pieces.

Hand Carved High Back Witco Tiki Throne King Chairs in Faux Leopard Fur
By Witco, William Westenhaver / Witco
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Take a walk on the wild side, or maybe just have a seat there with scepter in hand. Each anthropomorphic gorilla-arm-chair has been recovered in high-quality, cruelty free, faux-fur that very much resembles the look and feel of leopard fur. Each high back is adorned with two hand-carved conquistador heads donning their iconic helmets. These highly collectible and hard-to-find thrown chairs were born of the jet-set era. The 1960s was the golden age of air travel and Americans were absolutely fascinated with “Exotica.” Ephemera from exotic tropical lands around South Asia were all the rage and gave birth to an explosion of tiki motifs in popular American culture.
This project was a complete tear-down and rebuild. Every section was unbolted and individually restored. This sinuous, dark cedar has been painstakingly detailed by our in-house restoration team to both preserve the patina and address any imperfections in the wood. Lightly recolored and clear-coated to accentuate and preserve the character. The seats and backs were professionally reupholstered, and the results speak for themselves. We're more than certain these will exceed expectations.

Vintage Witco Tiki King Throne Hand-Carved Highback Chairs in Faux Leopard Fur

Located in Chattanooga, TN
Take a walk on the wild side, or maybe just have a seat there with scepter in hand.

Robert Post Junior and Artist William Westenhaver Created Witco in 1959. The two capitalized on the exotica trend by creating lavishly bold, roughly carved wood furniture and decor. The delightfully dramatic furniture was so beloved during the period that Elvis created an entire “Jungle Room” in his Graceland home featuring Witco furniture! Witco remains a mainstay among collectors today. You can even see original Witco pieces still in use at Graceland, and other iconic tiki venues like Polynesian Gardens, the Hawaiian Inn, and the Aku Tiki Inn all located in Florida.

Restored Witco Conquistador Tiki Throne Chairs in Original Red Fur
By Witco, William Westenhaver / Witco
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Pair of restored Witco Conquistador tiki throne chairs in original red fur. These chairs are absolutely wild in the best kind of way. The original red fur fabric has a thick pile. This bright red upholstery adds drama to the high-back, iron cladded, hand-carved throne. As if all that isn’t enough.. the arms are carved like gorilla paws. Each throne chair is crowned with two hand-carved conquistador heads donning their iconic helmets. These highly collectible and hard-to-find thrown chairs were born of the jet-set era. The 1960s was the golden age of air travel and Americans were absolutely fascinated with “Exotica.” Ephemera from exotic tropical lands around South Asia were all the rage and gave birth to an explosion of tiki motifs in popular American culture.
We have four of these chairs available, two arm chairs and two armless chairs. This listing is for just the two armchairs. The two armless chairs are sold separate. We also have the matching dining table, sold separate.
We have other Witco items available including conquistador chairs in new leopard upholstery, Witco end table, and Witco cat...
