Art deco chair

A art deco chair is a reproduction of a seat from the 1910s to 1930s, often in rosewood and exotic wood.

An art deco chair for a vintage interior

Unlike classic models, the art deco chair stands out for its refined style, its often dark color, but above all its noble, resistant and easy-to-maintain materials. In order to create an interior identical to that of the Roaring Twenties, this particular type of furniture will be of great use to you.

In addition to its practical side, the art deco chair is designed for optimal use. It is equipped with a very pleasant, soft and plush seat, as well as a reinforced backrest ensuring excellent comfort. The legs of each of our art deco chairs are made from strong solid wood to ensure great stability and robustness. Every detail counts and prioritizes aesthetics and functionality. You will know the difference once you sit on one of our products!

The particularities of art deco chairs

If the design of contemporary furniture focuses on curves and different patterns, art deco furniture plays on sobriety while remaining elegant. Even if it is a current reproduction, our art deco chair does not escape this convention. It must respect certain rules, particularly in terms of style. Undulating lines, curves or even counter-curves are thus removed to make way for symmetry and geometry, some of the particularities of the art deco trend.

As for the structure, it is composed of a solid wood frame, beech, mahogany, rosewood…

Some are in black lacquered metal, with futuristic shapes. A marquetry of noble wood species then covers the whole to give the chair its true identity. Like all furniture from the Roaring Twenties, the reproduction of our chair is unique and authentic. It is carefully made by professional craftsmen and cabinetmakers in order to give it the soul of the furniture of yesteryear as it once was. Each chair is therefore a safe bet for a 1930s style interior worthy of its name.

The seats are covered with noble materials such as leather, hand-sewn by experienced seamstresses, without which the art deco chair would look like any classic model. Art Deco stands out for its generally dark shades. You can allow yourself some fantasies on our antique furniture store by opting for pairs of lighter art deco chairs. In order to best harmonize your interior decoration according to your tastes.

Precious wood chairs

When it comes to durability, the strength of solid wood is no longer in doubt. Frequently used in any wooden work, this type of material is also used in the reproduction of our antique furniture, including the art deco chair. Worked in a traditional way by professional craftsmen, solid wood allows the creation of beautiful pieces that offer optimal stability over time.

Once finished, the structure of our solid wood art deco chair is then inlaid. The veneers used are precious wood species such as elm burl, mahogany, rosewood or teak. An exotic wood that seduces with its great resistance to climate changes and humidity.

For the seat, it is often upholstered in ivory imitation leather depending on the model. In all cases, each art deco chair in our collection displays a discreet look and an elegant design that perfectly meets all your expectations.

Choosing a rosewood chair means, above all, prioritizing quality and aesthetics. This noble material also hides another advantage: robustness. In our store art deco chairs, you will discover different models of solid wood chairs with rosewood marquetry.

Whether it is a model with four legs or less, our replicas guarantee perfect stability. Optimal comfort of use thanks to their seat covered in imitation leather. Their backrest is firmly fixed to the frame to avoid possible imbalances during use. The varnishes applied by hand reflect tedious work for an impeccable visual effect. Here is a chair that perfectly meets the requirements of genuine furniture from the 30s.

Besides rosewood, beech is also an excellent material to reproduce furniture from the era of The Great Gatsby. With their know-how and extensive experience in furniture manufacturing, master craftsmen use it to create works of art in their own right. Once the frame of the art deco chair finished, they will marquetry the structure with prestigious wood species such as maple, teak or rosewood. Just like with the other models, our art deco beech chairs receive different layers of varnish applied by hand for an unrivaled finish.

From Art Nouveau to Art Decoration

Appearing around 1910 in reaction to the Art Nouveau movement, Art Deco is an artistic movement that extends over many areas. It originally established itself in architecture through typography and sculpture before being used in furniture and decoration. It was during the years 1920 to 1925 that this style enjoyed great success with the general public at the Exposition des Arts décoratifs et Industriels modernes in Paris. First used in Germany then in Holland, the Art Deco style then settled in France at the time until today. The period of art and decoration was prosperous in furniture, art deco armchairs made their appearance, with the famous club armchairs, and the bridge armchair.

The Art Deco trend aims to be practical, refined and luxurious. To stand out from the habits of the previous movement, the artists and pioneers of Art Deco decided to remove all the undulating lines and curves from their works. The furniture thus takes on a geometric and symmetrical design in order to oppose the organic lines of Art Nouveau of the 1910s. Influenced mainly by so-called "Cubist" art. The guiding principle of this artistic movement requires a simplification of forms that tend towards minimalism. As found in our range of " art deco chair » and in all the rest of our online store.
