Description

Mid century modern iron & wicker pair of neva-rust chairs by maurizio tempestini for salterini

When I saw this pair of awesome chairs, I knew I had to have them to offer to you! They are the epitome of 1950s patio parties!! Designed by Maurizio Tempestini for the renowned John Salterini outdoor furniture maker these Neva-Rust chairs have a wrought iron frame with an expanded metal seat and woven rattan wicker bucket backs. Plus, they wear their original black vinyl faux leather on their removable padded seats. You may wish to recover but I would not hesitate to use them as is. Hmmmm? However, they would be quite incredible in a bright turquoise or coral!! Whatever color or upholstery you choose, this pair will be the perfect set on your patio or deck. But do not relegate them to only the out of doors. They would be wonderfully handsome in your kitchen, sunroom, bedroom, or…just anywhere really. You merely need to make them yours!!

Handsome and unusual pair of mid-century modern iron and wicker barrel back Neva-Rust chairs designed by Maurizio Tempestini for John Salterini. They are in wonderful vintage condition. They retain their original black finish, but it is not without nicks and dings and missing paint. We call that patina. There were a couple broken wicker strands that have been repaired by our experienced staff. Original seat vinyl is in good condition, but you may wish to recover. Please see photos. Circa 1950-1960.
