An elegant pair of Hollywood Neoclassical-style chairs, crafted in gilt metal with scrollwork decoration forming a heart motif on the backs.

The slender, gently curved legs lend the ensemble a striking visual lightness, recalling the decorative French creations of the 1960s–1970s in the spirit of Maison Jansen or Maison Baguès.

The seats are upholstered in black faux fur, adding an original, contemporary contrast to the gilt framework.

These chairs are versatile enough to be used in a bedroom, dressing room, entrance hall, or as decorative occasional seating.

The highly graphic design of the backs and the refined quality of execution make these particularly sought-after decorative pieces for glamorous or eclectic interiors.
