One chair (right) has been used a bit more. But also in top vintage condition (see photos).
As we deal in vintage furniture, signs of wear are inevitable and part of the nature of used items. We therefore point out only larger flaws and damages with separate pictures. Nevertheless, we strive to capture the condition of the objects as accurately as possible.
The goods are subject to the margin scheme under § 25a UStG; a VAT invoice is not issued.
Seller's Story
Since we can remember we felt attracted to beauty and exceptional things. Aesthetic has always been more than something superficial for us. It was something magic going much deeper than the surface, creating positive feelings and energies.
Harmonies, sacred proportions, colors and materials combined with time, create their very special energies and are mostly things that hardly can be described but always can be felt.
To define beauty would be far to philosophical, but we think, if something touches you by the way it looks and gives you good energy at the same time, then it would define our personal definition of beauty.
And if beauty is something that has no other purpose than making you feel good just by the way it looks, then beauty is something we surely do not want to miss in our lives.
We thank existence for giving us all those unique materials and designs and all the talented designers and craftsmen for bringing their visions and abilities to life and sharing it, to bring us purpose combined with joy.
We are glad to have the platform Catawiki where we can share our passion for extraordinary and beautiful things with like-minded people.
