Sourced in Provence, France, these early 20th century chairs embody the charm and craftsmanship of provincial furniture. Each chair features a tall back framed by rounded stiles capped with turned finials, with four scalloped horizontal slats forming the classic ladder-back design. The seats are handwoven in natural rush, arranged in a chevron pattern that has developed a warm golden patina through age and use. The frames rest on slightly tapered front legs with subtle turning, joined by double side stretchers and a single front stretcher for durability and strength. The set has been structurally revised and newly refinished in a deep brown tone, ensuring stability while preserving the authentic character of the wood. A complete set of eight, carefully restored for everyday use, these chairs are equally suited for farmhouse dining or to bring rustic warmth to a more refined setting.
