Description
This beautiful pair of Italian walnut chairs, with a simple and elegant appearance, presents a structure still reminiscent of the medieval era with its straight lines. The ornamentation adds a touch of softness and provides a beautiful harmony to the whole.
On the front, a wide high crossbar corresponds to the backrest with large openwork panels depicting vases and volutes.
The backrest extends its uprights into palmettes sculpted in plume. A rare feature, the rear uprights, square in section, bear a small buttress at the back to prevent any risk of tipping over.
Of excellent craftsmanship, these high-backed chairs combine utility with pleasure and are entirely significant of the Italian Renaissance.
