Utilizing the historic factory's expertise in steam-bent timber, these chairs exhibit a progressive late mid-century aesthetic, defined by fluidly curved continuous beech wood armrests and an unconventional geometric support frame that delivers remarkable graphic appeal from every angle. The suite has undergone an exacting professional restoration. The light beech wood structures have been meticulously cleaned, stabilized, and re-polished to breathe new life into their natural blonde luster while honoring original surfaces. For a dramatic visual statement, the seats and central vertical back splats have been newly reupholstered in a premium, multi-colored jacquard textile featuring a detailed, artful feather-and-scale motif. Offering superb ergonomic support and a seat height of 46 cm, this highly collectible duo functions flawlessly as host dining chairs, executive desk seating, or standalone statement pieces in a curated interior.

Condition Report: Excellent professionally restored condition. The bentwood beech frames are structurally robust, sound, and have been freshly re-polished. The upholstery is entirely brand new with premium modern materials and pristine stitching throughout. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
