In most mid-century European design, there was an early emphasis on wood. It connected everyday objects, such as furniture to nature and as it was an easily accessible material. This pair of rustic, solid wood armchairs is a perfect example of this sentiment, and the visual benefits of an understated, organic design. The natural texture of the wood adds to the chairs’ robust character. The base is a marvel of fine detailing, showcasing impeccable joinery underscoring the artisan's dedication to craftsmanship.

In rustic pieces like this pair, the wood is not overworked, its raw surface and edges are kept to show off the beautiful grain and texture, serving the purpose of showing the beauty of natural material and it’s endless possibilities. The wood has aged beautifully and displays a lovely grain pattern. These chairs feature a startling rawness, but with their warm-toned, carved bodies, the pair is greatly-balanced. The cushions are upholstered in a stunning light brown fabric, inviting the sitter to have a complex experience, between the sturdiness of the wood structure and the softness of the upholstery. The combination of materials and finishes results in visually appealing pieces while adding warmth and comfort to the overall design. The dualism within these chairs is amazing: the chairs can fulfill their functional purpose in an interior while also achieving their aesthetic role. Furthermore, the metal elements that frame the sides are reminiscent of industrial design, celebrating the rawness and mechanical ingenuity of the mid-20th century in its whole.

Defined by clean, smooth lines, and excellent joinery, these chairs were created by an exceptionally skilled craftsman who made sure the pair was durable, stable and functional, while their expertise and use of high-quality materials made each piece a beautiful design heirloom.
