The set includes two armchairs and six side chairs, each defined by gracefully tapered fluted legs, rosette block detailing, and finely carved frames with subtle gilt accents. The proportions are classic and balanced, offering a timeless neoclassical silhouette well suited to both formal and transitional interiors.

The chairs are upholstered in a luxurious Scalamandre fabric, featuring a refined laurel wreath motif in a soft blush tone. While the upholstery dates to 2002, the fabric has been exceptionally well preserved and remains in excellent condition, presenting clean, vibrant color and a crisp hand with no visible wear. The result is a polished, designer-ready presentation without the need for immediate reupholstery.

All frames are solid, sturdy, and comfortable, reflecting Karges’ reputation for superior construction and attention to detail. Light, age-appropriate wear to the wood finish is consistent with vintage pieces and adds warmth and authenticity without detracting from the overall elegance.

A rare opportunity to acquire a complete, coordinated dining set with armchairs—crafted by a respected American maker and finished in iconic Scalamandre upholstery.
