The fluted, turned legs terminate in balls, joined by a typical h-shaped stretcher. The backs feature a top rail carved with foliate and scroll motifs, framed by scrolled uprights, with a burgundy leather panel with a rounded arch, secured by a row of bronze upholstery tacks. The seats, also in studded burgundy leather, rest on a frame whose central rail is decorated with scale and scroll motifs.

the set shows wear consistent with its age: tears and loose leather at the corners of some seats, and one tack is missing. Despite this, the six chairs retain a beautiful uniformity of form and color, which is remarkable for a set of this age.

a leather restoration would restore their full charm. Ideal for a characterful dining room or a stylish interior.

dimensions per chair: h. 94 cm × w. 45 cm × d. 45 cm — total weight of the set: 15 kg. See less
