Description
An exceptional and increasingly sought-after dining set from Century Furniture's celebrated Chin Hua Collection, designed by renowned furniture designer Raymond K. Sobota.
Distinguished by burled teak wood, dramatic architectural proportions, ebonized finishes, and signature geometric brass hardware, the Chin Hua Collection remains one of Century Furniture's most recognizable and enduring designs. Inspired by Asian forms and adapted for modern luxury interiors, the collection exemplifies the craftsmanship and bold aesthetic that defined high-end American furniture during the late twentieth century.
This offering includes the original dining table, and six coordinating cane-back dining chairs.
The dining table showcases richly figured burl surfaces and substantial scale, while the accompanying chairs retain their elegant silhouettes and woven cane backs. Original Century Furniture literature is included, providing provenance and further documenting its place within the celebrated Chin Hua line.
Pieces from the Chin Hua Collection have long been favored by interior designers, collectors of postmodern and Hollywood Regency furnishings, and discerning homeowners seeking statement furniture with both presence and pedigree.
Condition is exceptionally well preserved for age, exhibiting only minor signs of use consistent with careful ownership.
