AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Set of four Italian living room chairs from around 1900, made of walnut with a beautiful, warm, even patina.

The backrests feature refined floral carvings and scrolls in typical Umbertine style, sculpted with great skill. The red velvet upholstery, still in good condition, shows only minor abrasions consistent with use. The seats are solid, with perfectly preserved padding and lower slats.

Slight signs of wear on the legs and small, now extinct, woodworm holes have been treated. Overall, these are elegant, decorative, and perfectly usable chairs, ideal for enhancing living rooms and classic spaces.

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
