1950s Rococo Revival Fanback Carved Chair

Description

An intricately carved fanback Rococo wing chair done in a trilogy of color. Blush double welt piping and the seat cushion as well. Ivory bamboo barkcloth does a lot of work too. What brings it together is the matte glacier gray paint on the detailed carved frame. A delightful combination.
