Product description
A solid wooden armchair dating from the early 20th century, most likely produced in Central Europe circa 1915–1930. The chair features a simple slatted construction with vertical spindles and a restrained architectural form, reflecting utilitarian furniture traditions of the period, positioned between late Art Nouveau influences and early functionalist principles.
The chair is made of solid softwood and retains its original white painted surface with visible wear and patina consistent with age and long-term use. The proportions and construction suggest an institutional or practical origin rather than a decorative design object.
An anonymous, un-attributed piece valued for its authenticity, honest construction, and sculptural simplicity. Suitable as an accent chair or character piece in a contemporary interior.
