AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant pair of English chairs from the late 19th century, crafted in solid mahogany with fine craftsmanship.

The front legs are slender and agile, with a sinuous curve and a slightly curved foot, while the rear legs follow continuously the line of the backrest. The backrest, shaped and richly carved, is embellished by a refined central cherub, a decorative element of great charm and execution quality. The carving, deep and harmonious, enhances the entire structure. The upholstered seat is wide and comfortable.

The chairs are structurally sound; only some parts of the fabric cord are slightly detached, as is clearly visible in the photograph.

Seller's Story

I have always been passionate about our past, knowing it is the only thing that does not cease the connection between what is and what was. When I reached the right age I understood that my passion had to coincide with my work and so I opened a business. The key principles are quality and love towards the customer. Francesco Secondo
