Description: Fabulous vintage Art Deco dining chairs comprised of walnut toned wood frames with red & Black leather seats & backs with brass nail head detail styled after Donald Deskey, Paul Frankl, & Edward Wormley. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, one chair has a small repaired tear in the upper left in the black leather seat back. They have not been refinished but one leg on two different chairs has been filled & repaired & the leather has little age-related spots & areas that just add to their vintage beauty. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Early 20th Century. Not one. Not Two. Not four, or six… but EIGHT!!! This set of art deco style dining chairs is OH-SO-GREAT!!! They are simply SCREAMING with Art Deco EXCELLENCE flaunting those marvelous walnut toned wood frames which bear back legs that flare both backward & sideways AND curved front legs that start out narrower at the top where the arms connect, curve in and widens at the seat, and taper down and narrows toward the feet. STUNNING!!! They have a tub or bucket style seat wearing sultry black leather with brass triple stacked nail head details at each corner surrounding the seat. They have gorgeous black leather armrests which wrap around and double as the center back cushion between two red leather back cushions, creating a MARVELOUS horizontal channeled design much like a tuck & roll. The decadently deep wine-red leather exudes almost a patent leather shine and has a depth and purposeful variation or marbling in the color… it’s absolutely PHENOMENAL!!!! This set bears styles after icons including Donald Deskey, Paul Frankl, and Edward Wormley but regardless, they are nothing short of MAGNIFICENT!!! And an interesting story accompanies these beauties… They were owned by David Stewart of Kansas City, Missouri who was the director of L’Omega which was an amazing art gallery stationed within a renovated 1921 service station building that Mr. Stewart says was chosen by the Smithsonian to be in a traveling show called “Buildings Reborn.” L’Omega was the home of Art Deco, Nouveau, and contemporary art objects with an objective to bring fine art to the Kansas City area. He led an interesting life filled with love for his community, travel, different cultures, and a need to support the arts until he passed away in 2011. There is a wonderful article/piece written about him in a book titled “Greater Kansas City’s Successful Single Men by Virginia Moffett & Rosalyn Jacobson.
