Description from the seller
RARE AND RARELY FOUND COMPLETE SET OF 11 HAND-EMBOSSED LEATHER SLINGS FOR SAFARI CHAIRS
An exceptional and highly decorative set of 11 original thick leather replacement slings/covers designed for Safari-style chairs, dating from the mid-20th century (circa 1960s–1970s).
This complete set stands out for its remarkable craftsmanship, inspired by traditional Spanish embossed leatherwork (Cuero de Cordobán). Rather than standard smooth leather, each piece features deep, intricate hand-stamped/embossed motifs, including rich peripheral garlands, detailed inscriptions, and anthropomorphic and colonial-style decorative patterns.
KEY FEATURES:
Quantity: Complete set of 11 leather slings (seat & backrest elements for Safari chairs).
Material: Heavy, high-quality full-grain leather with a rich natural patina.
Craftsmanship: Hand-embossed / repoussé leather in the Spanish Cordovan tradition, featuring elaborate floral, geometric, and figurative iconography.
Period: Circa 1960–1970.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition overall. The leather remains sturdy, supple, and functional, with a beautiful age-appropriate patina and minor signs of wear that add character and authenticity
