Set of 4 Vintage chairs in wood and woven rush – Italy, 1970s/1980s

The chairs feature a design typical of Italian furniture from the second half of the 20th century, with a strong artisanal component and a simple, natural aesthetic. The frame is made of turned and shaped wood, with cylindrical legs, reinforcing stretchers and a curved back. The seat is woven rush/reed, crafted in a four-sector geometric pattern that creates a characteristic radiating effect.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Set of 4 Vintage Wooden and Rush Chairs – Italy, 1970s/1980s

Elegant set of four vintage dining chairs, featuring warm honey-coloured wooden frames and distinctive high rounded backs with slender vertical spindles.

The chairs feature a typically Italian design from the second half of the 20th century, combining simple lines, natural materials and traditional craftsmanship. The frames are made of shaped and turned wood, with cylindrical legs, supporting stretchers and rounded arched backs.

The seats are made of woven rush/reed, arranged in a distinctive geometric four-section pattern creating a characteristic radial effect.

Style and period

Period: circa 1970s/1980s
Style: Italian Vintage, Rustic, Country, Mid-Century
Origin: Italy, stylistic attribution
Materials: Wood and woven rush/reed
Quantity: Set of 4 chairs

The design and proportions are consistent with Italian vintage furniture using natural wood and rush materials, particularly popular during the 1970s.

Condition

The chairs are presented in vintage condition, with visible signs of age and use, all documented in the photographs.

The wooden frames retain their attractive warm colour and natural patina. There are normal scratches, small marks and signs of use consistent with their age.

The rush seats show more significant age-related wear. Some areas of the woven material are worn or damaged, and one seat shows more extensive deterioration with loss of material. These details are clearly visible in the photographs and are part of the current condition of the set.

The chairs are therefore offered in their original condition, and the set would also be suitable for restoration of the woven seats.

Approximate dimensions

* Height: approximately 89 cm
* Width: approximately 43 cm
* Depth: approximately 50–51 cm
* Seat height: approximately 46 cm

Measurements are approximate and may vary slightly from one chair to another.

Suggested use

An attractive set for a dining room, kitchen, country house, farmhouse, restaurant, veranda or vintage-style interior. The natural materials and warm wooden tones make these chairs easy to combine with both traditional and contemporary interiors.

A charming vintage set with authentic age-related character, particularly suitable for collectors and enthusiasts of Italian vintage furniture.

Shipping: careful packaging. Due to the age and fragility of the woven rush seats, special attention will be given to protecting the seats during transport.
