Pair of Early 1940s Italian Gilt Rope and Tassel Iron Side Chairs by Niccolini

$ 18,800
  • Description
    This pair of exquisitely gilt Italian rope and tassel iron chairs should immediately come to mind when you hear Furniture Art. Before Niccolini, there was no rope and tassel chair and this design is quite possibly the first. Glowing gilt frames seduce with patina only time can gift. Solid wrought iron frames in red bole clay style, a method used for centuries that adds a rich and vibrant undertone to the gold. The red peeking through creates a "distressed" or antique finish that is historically desirable in traditional gilding. Thick iron frames lend the chairs some weight making them incredibly strong and sturdy. Shown with new cushions upholstered in soft leopard velvet. An iconic Hollywood Regency silhouette adored by the likes of Dorothy Draper. Chic as ever and ready to ship.

    Exquisite gilt over red bole clay with the sort of patina only time can gift. New cushions upholstered in leopard velvet. Custom pillow options available. Seat backs may also be upholstered for additional fee. C.O.M. available.
