Vintage Mid-Century Sculptural High-Back Slipper Accent Chairs – Pair
Description
A striking pair of vintage mid-century accent chairs featuring dramatic sculptural high backs, graceful curved silhouettes, and elegant tapered wood legs.
The chairs have an unusually sophisticated profile, with sweeping upholstered backs that gently wrap around the seat to create an almost cocoon-like silhouette. Subtle button detailing, self-piped edges, and beautifully proportioned seats add to their tailored appearance.
The chairs retain their vintage textured upholstery in soft dusty rose/blush tones with contrasting muted taupe-brown outer backs. The fabric has a refined woven, silk-like appearance that complements the distinctly mid-century form.
Unmarked, with no visible manufacturer’s label. Based on their design and construction, the chairs appear to date to approximately the 1950s–1960s. Their sculptural form incorporates elements of both Mid-Century Modern and Hollywood Regency design.
A beautiful statement pair for a living room, bedroom, dressing room, library, sitting area, or sophisticated boutique interior. Their distinctive shape would also make them exceptional candidates for professional reupholstery in mohair, velvet, bouclé, linen, or a dramatic designer textile.
Condition: Good vintage condition with wear consistent with age and use. The existing upholstery shows areas of fading, discoloration, pulls and general wear, including a small tear/opening as shown in the photographs. The wooden legs display age-appropriate surface wear and scuffing. Please review photographs closely for condition. The chairs are being offered in their current vintage condition.

40” H × 23.5” W × 20” D
Seat Height: 18”
Seat Depth: 19”
Sold as a pair.
My Chairish asking price: $1,495 for the pair.
