AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid mid-20th-century armchair, recently elevated by a masterful restoration. The frame, with rationalist and clean lines, has been paired with a new hand-woven seat in natural paper cord, following the tradition of high-end Danish design.

Restoration Details:
• Structure: The solid wood frame has been reinforced and treated with natural oils to revive the grain and protect the original patina.
• The Seat: Entirely handmade with a complex "double envelope" weave. This material is not only extremely strong and durable, but also provides a flexible, ergonomic seating that conforms to the body.

Aesthetic Features:
The backrest with vertical slats creates a geometric play of shadows that harmonizes perfectly with the seat’s textured surface. The wide, gently curved arms offer secure, elegant support. An ideal piece for a refined study or as an accent chair in a contemporary living room.

Condition:
In near-new condition as far as the seating is concerned. The frame shows minimal signs of wear that attest to its vintage authenticity. Stable, solid and ready to be displayed.
