The chairs feature a refined four-legged structure crafted from solid ash wood, showcasing Motte’s characteristic balance between architectural clarity and organic warmth. The seat and backrest are generously padded with foam and upholstered in a soft beige cotton fabric, whose subtle tone enhances the sculptural quality of the wooden frame while preserving a light and timeless aesthetic.

with their low profile and harmonious proportions, these vintage chairs integrate effortlessly into a wide range of interiors, from mid-century modern to contemporary spaces. Both chic and understated, they pair beautifully with a statement sofa or can stand alone as sculptural seating elements, adding a discreet yet sophisticated touch to any living area.

An authentic example of French design from the post-war period, combining comfort, elegance, and enduring modernity. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
