Description
A rare and exceptional set of 6 dining chairs attributed to Paul McCobb for Directional. Likely due to total restoration, they are unmarked. These sculptural pieces embody the clean lines and refined proportions McCobb is celebrated for, offering a timeless blend of elegance and modernity.
