Product description
This striking set of three sculptural iron chairs features high, spiral backs and a raw, expressive look reminiscent of André Dubreuil's iconic "Spine Chair." Crafted from solid iron rods, each piece reveals a unique, hand-forged construction, complete with exposed welds and naturally aged oxidation, forming a rich, authentic patina.
The markings "ARE" and "EZ/AL" are stamped into the metal multiple times, leaving the provenance of these chairs unknown, adding to their intrigue. The markings likely refer to the material source rather than a designer's signature, indicating studio or studio production rather than mass production. Their bold forms and distinctly industrial character are in keeping with the spirit of the brutalist and postmodern design movements of the late 20th century.
Although unsigned, the chairs demonstrate a high level of craftsmanship and sculptural intent - combining ornament and practicality in a manner reminiscent of the artistic design philosophy of the 1980s and 1990s. The scrollwork and imposing silhouette create a dramatic appearance in any indoor or outdoor setting.
