Pair of Art Deco Upholstered Lounge Chairs, Europe 1930s

Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
In the design-wise glamorous world of 1930s Europe, exceptional seating pieces emerged that remain and still embody Art Deco elegance. These lounge chairs, with their distinctive features, exude the spirit of the era and remain stylish examples of this influential design movement.

This set of Art Deco lounge chairs boast a beautiful, almost sculptural form with generous curves that evoke the high-end craftsmanship of a period that’s steeped in old-school luxury and glamour. With gently rounded edges, these chairs have a stylish flow to them. This is enhanced by the dark wood, which is used to inlay the edges, giving the chairs’ upholstery a contrast full of life. These chairs can give any space a distinct look thanks to the beautiful contrast between materials and colours. The clever use of the straight and rounded edges of both the wooden legs and the upholstered body shows not only design mastery, but also that quality craftsmanship was evidently of optimum importance for the cabinetmaker who created these chairs.

Apart from the fact that these lounge chairs create contrast, they can also provide a sense of symmetry to a space. The subtle decorative qualities and the simple lines give them their elegance. Furthermore, these lounge chairs are ideal to bring a vintage aesthetic into a room without dominating the rest of the interior. Art Deco embraced a carefree spirit, and so did European mid-century design. This pair inherited the best characteristics of both styles and can be considered a visual bridge between two design eras of the 20th century.‎
