Characterized by a sinuously curved wooden shell that recalls the organic lines typical of Italian craftsmanship of the era, the seats rest on a slender black metal tripod frame with terminal feet. What makes these pieces unique and of great rarity is the extraordinary painted decoration on the wood, depicting stylized female figures with a poetic flavor.
