French Carved Oak + Cognac Leather Dining Chair, 1940s - 4 Available

$2,800.00

A French dining chair from the 1940s, sourced from a private villa in the south of France.

The chair carries a warm, natural tone, with grain visible across the frame and legs. The construction is direct, softened by subtle shifts in line—the gentle taper of the legs, the slight curve at the back.

The defining feature is the low, openwork backrest. Cut through in a simple, geometric form, it curves slightly at the sides, supporting the body. The seat, upholstered in original cognac leather, complements the oak in both tone and texture.

This chair sits easily at a dining table, but also works on its own along a wall or in a corner.

Sold and priced individually.

PERIOD: 1940s

MATERIALS: Leather,Oak

CONDITION: In very good vintage condition. The wood shows a warm, even patina, and has undergone a five step refinishing process by our skillful team of in-house restorationists. The leather has been refreshed, conditioned, and sealed.
