Set of four Italian Mid-Century Modern dining chairs from the 1950s, with bent rosewood-veneered plywood frames, black iron legs and blue faux-leather upholstery, in good used condition with minor age-related marks.
Description from the seller
Set of four dining chairs, Italy, 1950s.
The chairs feature a distinctive “boomerang” side structure in rosewood-veneered bent plywood, combining the backrest and seat support in a single element. The legs are slim, tapered and finished in black lacquered iron, characteristic of Italian design of the period. The seat and backrest are padded and upholstered in petrol-blue Skai (synthetic leather), which pairs elegantly with the warmth of the wood.
A complete, cohesive set, ideal for a mid-century-style dining room or for collectors of 1950s Italian design.
Condition: in good condition for their age and intended use. The wood retains a beautiful patina, with minor signs of age, light scratches and a few small chips along the plywood edges. The Skai is intact, with light signs of use and a few superficial scratches on the backrests. The legs have small areas of paint wear. The structure is sturdy and stable. No manufacturer’s label is visible; the attribution is based on the model and construction details.
Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description.
Careful shipping, with protective packaging for each chair.
