Description

  • Louis Majorelle
  • "Iris" Chair
  • mahogany and fabric upholstery

Condition

Overall in very good condition. When viewed in person, the wood presents with a lighter brown color than seen in the catalogue illustration. The wood surfaces with minor surface scratches, minor edge abrasions and light surface dirt consistent with age and gentle use. Minor separations to the joints of the sculpture, which does not affect the solidity of the chairs. The chair has been reupholstered and the upholstery presents with minor surface dirt and wear consistent with use. A beautiful chair with highly detailed carved decoration.
