An Art Deco Chair & Stool

Elegant, Art Deco tub square armchair, with stool. Amboyna veneer and ebonised beech. Recently reupholstered in old-gold velvet

We do not know the name of the designer for this chair, but the use of amboyna veneer – an expensive wood species mostly used in France in the late eighteenth century, and then around the 1920s – points to a select, refined production.

France, c.1925
