Pair of Spanish armchairs from the 1960s, made of stained pine and woven cattail. The pieces reflect a tradition of folk furniture with artisanal roots, reinterpreted with a formal simplicity closely aligned with mid-20th-century modern taste.

The frame, with its straight lines and sturdy proportions, has hallmarks of contrast with the handcrafted rush weaving, which adds texture, warmth, and a distinct graphic quality. The weaving of the backrest, arranged in a geometric cross pattern, serves as the set’s primary ornamental element, transforming a functional design into a motif of great decorative impact.
