Set of six Art Deco chairs, characterized by a design of great formal refinement and elegance, typical of French cabinetmaking of the interwar period. Made of Macassar ebony wood, the pieces have a deep dark finish, beautiful grain and natural luster that enhances the sobriety of its structure.

The design is defined by a high backrest with a straight, solid profile, which contrasts chromatically with the light upholstery of the seat. The legs, with their square section and slight stiletto shape, add slenderness and balance. The set exemplifies the functional luxury and geometric sophistication that defined the taste of the European haute bourgeoisie of the 1920s.
