Description
An exquisite pair of handcrafted diminutive chairs, custom made in Italy circa mid-to-late 20th century. These chairs boast intricately carved crest rails and seatrails finished in a luxurious patinated gold and platinum polychrome, exemplifying old-world craftsmanship.
Each chair features an elegant oval medallion back upholstered in a regal ruby red silk satin with a diamond pattern, evocative of the grandeur of Buckingham Palace. The plush seat cushions are tailored in a courtly black and white striped silk satin, detailed with welted cording and tassel ties for a refined finish. Raised on classic round fluted and tapered legs, these petite chairs merge decorative artistry with practical charm.
Ideal for spaces requiring a smaller scale or even as standout pieces in a child's room, they exude royal sophistication and timeless design.
