Description
Elegant pair of vintage Hollywood Regency slipper chairs featuring dramatic fan-shaped channel backs, exposed carved wood side rails, curved front legs, and golden yellow velvet upholstery. The silhouette has a glamorous old-Hollywood feel with Art Deco influence, making these a striking pair for a living room, bedroom, boutique, dressing room, or designer project.
The chairs have wonderful shape and presence, with scalloped shell-like backs and warm wood details along the sides and legs. The upholstery is a rich golden chartreuse velvet, but it shows significant staining, discoloration, wear, and age-related marks throughout. The underside shows vintage spring construction and signs of prior repair, so these are best suited for reupholstery or restoration.
A beautiful decorator pair with excellent bones and a rare, sculptural profile—perfect for recovering in mohair, velvet, linen, bouclé, or a bold patterned fabric.
