AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Vintage hand-painted wooden chair, featuring rich decoration inspired by Sicilian carts and Moorish iconography.

The burgundy background is embellished with floral motifs, scrollwork, and small multicolored ornaments extending across the backrest, legs, and stretchers. The seat features two Moorish faces wearing blue turbans, set within a composition of leaves and arabesques in shades of green, yellow, and blue.

The decoration continues on the back, making the chair interesting from every angle. The signature “Latina F.” is visible on the seat.

A highly decorative piece of furniture that brings the color and charm of Sicilian figurative tradition to a classic or contemporary interior.

It has small signs of use and minor imperfections on the painted surface, as shown in the photos, to be considered part of its age.
