Exceptional set of eight vintage dining chairs by Trauvailles Inc., dating to the 1970s. This set showcases refined European-inspired forms with gently arched backs, elegantly curved saber-style legs, and a distinctive shaped stretcher base—an architectural silhouette that feels timeless yet substantial.
The chairs retain their original period upholstery, which shows wear consistent with age and use. Reupholstery is recommended to return the set to like-new condition and to fully customize the look for your space. The most important part is already here: excellent bones. All eight chairs are very solid, structurally sound, and free of loose joints, making them an ideal foundation for a high-quality upholstery project.
Finished in a deep, rich wood tone and accented with classic nailhead trim, these chairs offer a rare opportunity to invest in well-crafted vintage seating and tailor the final presentation—whether in tailored linen, mohair, velvet, leather, or a bold designer textile.
A strong choice for designers, collectors, or anyone seeking statement dining chairs with presence, craftsmanship, and longevity.

All eight chairs are structurally sound and very solid, with no loose joints or wobble. Wood frames are sturdy and well-constructed, showing minor surface wear consistent with age, including small scuffs and finish wear in areas of typical use. Upholstery is original to the period and shows visible wear, fading, and areas of discoloration, particularly on seats and high-contact areas. Fabric has reached the end of its service life and reupholstery is recommended to return the chairs to like-new condition. Nailhead trim remains intact and secure. less
