Made out of rich walnut, these pieces have been impeccably refinished to highlight the natural beauty of the wood.

The chairs are characterized by subtly curved tapered backs and elegant sabre legs. The recent restoration included reupholstering the seats in soft camel leather, complemented by brass nailhead trim.
