Description
A rare and authentic set of five original Monterey Furniture dining chairs, crafted in the Spanish Revival and California Rancho style that defined early 20th-century West Coast design.
These stunning armchairs are made of solid mahogany and feature the signature hand-forged iron strapping at the back, beautifully scooped and contoured seats for comfort, and that unmistakable rustic Western charm for which Monterey Furniture is so beloved. Each chair is signed and branded on the underside, and we believe they were produced by the renowned Mason Manufacturing Company of Los Angeles, one of the premier makers of Monterey-style furnishings during the Golden Hollywood era of the 1930s and 1940s.
The original finish remains intact, preserving a wonderfully weathered patina that enhances their authenticity and character. The texture and tone recall the rugged romance of an old California ranch or Western saloon "” rustic yet refined, with enduring craftsmanship that tells its story through every detail.
"Rancho Monterey furniture was first created by Mason Manufacturing Company in 1929 at the request of Barker Brothers, designed to capture the essence of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture so popular in Southern California and Hollywood at the time."
These chairs embody that legacy "” a perfect blend of Spanish Colonial, Wild West, and California Mission influences. A truly exceptional find for collectors and design enthusiasts alike.
