A stunning handcrafted Syrian-style armchair featuring extraordinary hand-cut mother-of-pearl and abalone shell inlay throughout the entire frame. This impressive accent chair showcases the intricate craftsmanship associated with traditional Damascus furniture, with elaborate floral carvings, geometric mosaic inlay, and a dramatic pierced backrest.
Every visible surface is richly decorated with genuine shell inlay, from the crest and arms to the legs and apron. The chair has been professionally reupholstered in an elegant neutral paisley fabric that complements the natural tones of the wood and iridescent shell.
This statement piece works beautifully in a living room, library, entryway, study, or luxury bedroom and would make an exceptional conversation piece for collectors of Middle Eastern furniture.
Condition is very good vintage. The chair is sturdy and displays beautifully. As expected with age and handcrafted shell furniture, there are several small areas of missing or chipped shell inlay, primarily near the crest and in a few decorative elements. These imperfections are cosmetic and do not affect the structural integrity of the chair. Please review all photographs carefully, as they are part of the description.
A remarkable example of traditional handcrafted Syrian artistry.
