This is a sharp set of three authentic Paoli armchairs, a great example of late-century American modern design that blends contract-grade construction with residential warmth.

Paoli was known for building furniture that actually got used—law offices, executive suites, universities—and these chairs show it. Solid walnut frames with sculpted arms, tapered legs, and a stance that feels architectural without being bulky. The black upholstered seats and backs keep the look clean and modern, with enough structure to read “designed,” not lounge-sloppy.

They work equally well as accent chairs, dining captains, conference seating, or statement pieces in an office or studio. Timeless profile, neutral palette, and real materials—the kind of chairs that don’t date themselves.

Condition:
Very good vintage condition. Frames are solid and tight. Upholstery presents cleanly with light, age-appropriate wear consistent with careful use. No structural issues.

Why they matter:
These aren’t trend pieces. They’re functional modern classics—well-built, versatile, and increasingly hard to find as complete matching sets. See less
