More About This Item:
Graceful and undeniably glamorous, this pair of 1940s velvet Klismos slipper chairs captures the spirit of vintage Hollywood Regency with a whisper of Grecian influence. The curved Klismos legs—borrowed from ancient Greek furniture design—contrast beautifully with the tailored, button-tufted backs and subtly shimmering champagne velvet upholstery.
Whether placed in a luxurious dressing room, a bold sitting area, or flanking a fireplace, these chairs make an impression. They’ve been thoughtfully restored, maintaining their original structure while elevating their allure with plush new fabric and kapok-filled cushions (securely enclosed within individual chambers beneath the upholstery)—an eco-friendly fiber prized for its lightweight resilience.
Design Style:
The Klismos silhouette has long been a designer favorite for its sculptural, curving lines that feel both architectural and feminine. These slipper chairs are a versatile fit for Hollywood Regency, Art Deco, and contemporary spaces seeking a splash of vintage refinement. Pair them with a mirrored side table or a sculptural lamp for a layered, editorial look.
Craftsmanship & Material:
Though the maker remains unknown, the construction speaks volumes. Each chair is padded with kapok, a silky, sustainable natural fiber, enclosed in individual chambers for a gently supportive sit. The champagne velvet upholstery is soft with a subtle sheen, offering an understated luxury that complements both bold and neutral palettes.
Float them in a room with bold artwork or angle them toward a coffee table in a quiet corner. These are the chairs that invite compliments—and a cocktail hour spent in good company.
