Chair - Beech - Savonarola chair

Elegant Savonarola chair with two knobs at the ends of the armrests, with rings,
Manufactured by Florentine artists in beech wood.
Made in the mid-20th century in Italy, specifically in the Tuscan region.
The Savonarola is a folding chair, closing like a book and composed of serpentine curved elements and crossed in an X.
The term "Savonarola" derives from the name Girolamo Savonarola (1452 - 1498), at whose time the chair of this type, still preserved in his cell at the San Marco convent in Florence, where he lived from 1482 until his death, would date.
In generally good condition, the chair has been recently treated with anti-termite protection.
