Pair of French Turned-Wood Armchairs with Rush Seats, 1950s
We found these two at a French market and were rather taken with all the round wooden tops and turned details. Two little thrones, with woven seats to keep things from getting too grand.
Then we counted three pairs of lips in each backrest. A ménage à trois? Perhaps we’d been in France too long…
They’d look good around a kitchen table, though we’d be tempted to put them somewhere less expected. One in the bedroom, perhaps. We’ll leave that with you.
They were already in beautiful condition when we found them. No restoration needed, so we’ve left them just as they were.
