Description from the seller

Art piece in wrought iron, artisanal craftsmanship from the second half of the 20th century.
Refined single chair handcrafted in the second half of the twentieth century, characterized by a structure entirely in wrought iron with a patinated bronze finish and hand-hammered details on the profiles.
The piece stands out for its unusual, slender proportions, dominated by a very tall vertical backrest of 135 cm, which explicitly evokes Gothic and Neo-Gothic styles, emphasized by vertical geometry, curved lines, and symmetrical volute decorative motifs.
The seat, with a bent and reinforced frame, is designed to accommodate a cushion or upholstered seating surface, while the curved legs provide stability and stylistic continuity to the whole.
Dimensions: total height 135 cm, depth 45 cm, width 40 cm.
This furniture complement can be placed as an accent element or a strong visual “statement piece” in entryways, studies, eclectically styled living rooms, or lofts with industrial and refined design. It also naturally suits theatre, film, or commercial contexts for set design, shop windows, photo shoots, or museum displays seeking a piece with historical flavor.
Finally, it is perfectly suited for interior design projects oriented toward collecting and historical themes, dark academia, or contemporary Gothic.
Please carefully review all photos, which are an integral part of the description.
Given the size and weight, collection by the purchaser is required.
