Rare Art Deco highback armchair from Prague, 1930s, featuring a sculptural wingback silhouette and original terracotta upholstery—an authentic Central European statement piece. This rare Art Deco highback armchair was produced in Prague, Czechoslovakia, during the 1930s and exemplifies the refined craftsmanship and sculptural presence of Central European design from the interwar period. The chair is defined by its tall wingback profile, generously curved armrests, and compact architectural proportions, creating a strong yet elegant silhouette. The design reflects the transition between classic Art Deco and early modernist seating, making it particularly appealing to collectors and interior designers seeking pieces that bridge historical styles. While firmly rooted in the Art Deco movement, the clean lines and balanced form also resonate naturally within Mid-Century Modern, contemporary, and eclectic interiors. The chair retains its original terracotta upholstery, showcasing a subtle patterned fabric that adds warmth and texture. Due to age and use, reupholstery is recommended, offering an excellent opportunity to customize the piece with a fabric of choice while preserving the original character of the frame. The seat and back remain comfortable and well-proportioned, supported by a solid internal structure and resting on shaped wooden feet. with its compact footprint and commanding vertical presence, this highback armchair works equally well as a standalone accent piece, a reading chair, or within a curated seating arrangement. Its sculptural form makes it suitable for residential interiors, boutique hospitality spaces, or collector-focused projects. A distinctive and authentic example of 1930s Prague design, this chair is offered as a unique, one-of-a-kind piece. Details
