SET OF SIX ART NOUVEAU CARVED WALNUT AND LEATHER SIDE CHAIRS
Probably French, circa 1910
Item # 311BXP30L
A lovely set of six Art Nouveau dining chairs with only the most subtly carved embellishments, the chairs rely almost entirely on the gentle curves and scrolls to create a most aesthetically pleasing form. They feature original incredibly worn and oxidized floral decorated rawhide leather upholstery with floral embossed brass tacking around the edges, a rich material that only seems to look better as time and gentle wear have left their marks upon it. The frames are a golden walnut with a rich glowing patina. A delightful set.
Measurements: 37 1/2" H x 18" D x 19" W x 18" H to seat
Condition Report:
Extensively worn leather with scuffs, scratches and craquelure - the leather is an absolute treasure and is still serviceable for many decades to come if well-cared for. Sturdy and strong in all joints. Light scuffs and chips to wood, overall remaining in excellent antique condition.

Established in 2009, we have
available in our 9000 square foot brick-and-mortar gallery an
ever-changing selection of carefully curated and catalogued furniture,
decorative arts, paintings, sculpture and estate jewelry. Our company
has long specialized in sculpture circa 1860 through 1930 and as such
the gallery always has a very large collection of
exceptional European and American sculpture available on display. As

we take our role very seriously with a "light-touch" approach to
restoration and conservation. All objects are guaranteed to be exactly

FREIGHT SHIPMENTS
We
offer economical and speedy freight service for most locations in the
lower 48 States via the major LTL freight carriers. Delivery is
generally 5-10 business days after packing is complete for the East
Coast and 15-20 business days after packing is complete for the West
Coast. Rush service is available so just contact us for a quote if there
is a project deadline.
The Process:
- The
item is professionally packaged by our in-house team, palletized and
shipped on a tractor trailer. Packing happens on Tuesdays, Wednesdays
and Thursdays so if your purchase comes through on a Wednesday, it may
not be packed until the following Tuesday depending on our packing
schedule.
- We release the palletized shipment to the LTL freight firm and upload tracking information to your order
- Once
the freight has made it to the terminal nearest to your home, the
dispatch team will notify the buyer and schedule a delivery day.
- The
buyer is then required to make the necessary arrangements to receive
and inspect the goods. Some freight firms will offer a delivery window
while others will
require the buyer or a representative for the buyer to be available the
entire day. Please note, drivers are never allowed to call the buyer to
update them on an expected delivery time, though it may be possible for
the buyer to call the terminal and get a rough idea on updated timing
throughout the day.
- On delivery day, the tractor trailer will
arrive at the residence and the truck driver will lower the palletized
shipment to the nearest curb with a lift-gate where the buyer will then
be responsible for bringing it into the home, unpacking and disposing of
the packing materials. If you require a higher level of service (i.e
brought up the driveway and into the garage, brought into the entryway
of the home, etc.) just contact us for a quote.
