Art Deco Armchair in Red Brown Leather and Oak with Adjustable Tall Back

Lounge chair, oak, leather, brass, Europe, 1930s

This adjustable chair distinguishes itself with a bold architectural presence, its rectilinear frame and upright profile evoking the clarity and rigor of early modernist design. The armrests are the most expressive element of the chair. Rather than following the strict angularity of the frame, they project outward in a softened, sweeping arc before resolving into the vertical supports of the legs. This gesture breaks the rigidity of the form, introducing rhythm and movement to an otherwise severe composition. The tall backrest can be adjusted in its angle. The red-brown leather is secured to the frame with brass nails, adding a touch of sophistication. The chair’s proportions are deliberate and almost architectural: the elevated backrest elongates the profile, while the sturdy legs ground the piece with a sense of permanence. Material choices reinforce these formal qualities.

Kindly note that the piece is in used condition with signs of age and use, such as wear marks on the wooden frame, common for a piece this age. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
