Lot 145: A Pair of Mid-20th Century Woven Armchairs
Not sold
A pair of woven armchairs, each featuring a rounded, tub-shaped backrest that flows into integrated, sloping arms. The chairs are constructed from a woven material over a wire and wooden framework, supported by four tapering cylindrical legs. One chair is finished in a light grey/blue tone and is supplied with a separate black textured fleece scatter cushion. The second chair is finished in a cream tone and features a fitted base cushion upholstered in a reddish-pink fabric with a repeating floral sprig pattern. The weave is executed in a tight, uniform style across the seat and back surfaces. No maker’s marks, signatures, or labels are visible on the items.
Condition report:
Both chairs show signs of age and significant wear. There is widespread paint loss, flaking, and chipping across the frames, most notably along the edges of the arms, seat rails, and the lower sections of the legs. The cream-coloured chair displays exposed darker material where the surface finish has worn away on the front legs. The woven surfaces appear structurally intact but show surface grime and discolouration. The floral upholstery on the cream chair shows signs of fading and compression to the internal padding.
