Pair of Rattan Armchairs with Wraparound Backrest. French Work. Years

Each chair features a wrapping horseshoe-shaped backrest, adorned with parallel curved rattan rods that follow the curve of the frame and naturally extend towards the armrests, which are highlighted by a side loop. The curved seat, made of bent slats, rests on a rattan compass base connected by curved stretchers, all meticulously assembled with bindings. This model illustrates the beautiful French production of rattan from the 1960s, inheriting from traditional workshops and Riviera taste, where the flexibility of the material allowed for these organic silhouettes, both light, comfortable, and durable. Condition assessment: Good overall condition. Healthy rattan with a homogeneous golden honey patina, complete slats, bindings in place, stable structures. A warm pair for a living room, a veranda, or a bedroom, to be enhanced with cushions or pads in contemporary style.
