Vintage Guatemalan Child's Chair, C. 1900

Description

Crafted in the early 20th century, this petite Guatemalan children's chair charms with its playful asymmetry and blend of motifs. Influenced by Spanish Colonial furniture design, the painted chair has an angular back and square seat resting on two hand-turned legs. The low seat is the perfect height for a youngster, but we love this petite chair as a low side table or tabletop display stand.
