Description

A hearty midcentury piece with incredible detailing, this chair has a storied, grand look. The piece appears older than its 1960’s creation, with its French neoclassical inspiration evident in the strong, straight-lined structure of the chair. A closer look reveals grooved designs around the edge of the seat, which highlight the rich coloring of the varnished black teak. And, finally, the chair back features graceful, delicate chinoiserie that makes this piece an extraordinary, eye-catching addition to any modern interior.
