FREE Shipping on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. More remote and rural areas will incur a charge to send via courier.
A stunning and rare pair of mid Century Italian Chiavari (Banquet) chairs in heavy brass. These chairs was created in 1807 by a cabinet maker from Chiavari on the north-western Italian coast, Giuseppe Gaetano Descalzi. At the invitation of the President of the Economic Society of Chiavari, the Marquis Stefano Rivarola, Descalzi reworked some chairs in the French Empire style, simplifying the decorative elements and lightening the structural elements. They were basically born form the simplification in design of the heavily ornate French Empire chairs. These chairs would have been used in meetings, weddings, banquets etc. They retain their original upholstery in very good order for their age.
We think they are stunning dress chairs that would spark many conversations. They could be used as hall chairs, bedroom chairs, dressing table chairs, bathroom chairs etc etc. A unique style statement to really finish a space.
Dimensions:
93cm Back Height, 38cm Wide, 43cm Deep.
Seat height 45.5cm
Price is for the Pair.

Add to cartMORE INFOOriginal Mid 20th Century French Heavy Pewter Jug
£115FREE UK Shipping on this piece via ParcelForce 48.
A gorgeous original vintage decorative piece from France. We estimate this heavy pewter jug dates from the 1940’s to 50’s. It would have been used as a wash jug and probably a vase at later points. We adore the perfect ageing of its colour and condition. Some marks and small dings that proves its age and authenticity. We think it would now make a beautiful vase, decorative display piece or look fantastic in the right bathroom. A quality piece reflected in its circa 5kg weight. This will just get better and better with age!
Sold without the artificial flowers shown in the photographs but please contact us if you would like a spray of flowers as photographed.
Dimensions: 45cm Tall, 18cm diameter at its widest point, 10cm top/ opening diameter.
