The organic curves and gently flowing armrests give these chairs a quiet, confident presence — a design that doesn’t seek attention, yet naturally enriches any interior with its timeless character.

The chairs are in fully original condition, with all components authentic to the period. The sand-coloured upholstery brings a warm, natural tone, making the pair an easy fit for contemporary, Scandinavian, or mid-century modern spaces. Their chromed steel legs provide a light, elegant base while adding a refined rhythm to the overall silhouette.

As a pair, these chairs make an especially compelling statement: they seem to be in conversation with each other, creating a sense of balance, harmony, and understated sophistication.
