Set of Six Søren Nissen & Ebbe Gehl Dining Chairs in Beech, Seltz, France, 1980s

Description
This rare set of six dining chairs was designed by the Danish designers Søren Nissen and Ebbe Gehl. The chairs were produced by the French manufacturer Ebénisterie Seltz for only a short period of time in the 1980s. This particular model was numbered FCH 1A and it was made of solid beech wood with details in darker stained elm wood. The dynamic, diagonal lines of the base give the chairs a sculptural and attractive appearance. The triangular shape of the backrest is repeated in the decorative top detail in elm wood. Slightly curved seat consisting of three panels in beech wood. The geometric details and lines make this a visually attractive chair from all angles. The chairs are in good original condition, with a natural patina on the wood. Minor scratches in the wood in the seating part of a number of chairs.
