This exquisite ensemble of six elegant chairs follows the tradition of great French designers of the Art Deco period. The gracefully curved legs made of solid rosewood, the backrest, and the balanced proportions evoke designs by Ruhlmann, Eugène Printz, or René Prou. Upholstered in "Les Echos," a cotton-silk satin from the French manufactory Prelle, this set becomes a highlight of a refined interior.

Art Déco: The Art Déco style followed on from Art Nouveau and developed significantly between the two world wars - a key moment and at the same time the eponym was the "Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes" in Paris in 1925, which made Paris the starting point of the style movement. Art Deco established a new decorative and elegant style that was characterized by strongly geometric forms, an expressive choice of colours and materials and extravagance. Decorative objects and interiors were often characterized by a symmetrical, two-dimensional and organic motif concept. In Europe and the USA, independent aesthetic versions of the style emerged, such as the luxurious French Art Deco or Streamline Modernism in the USA. However, the Amsterdam School was also heavily influenced by Art Deco style elements.
