A rare and elegant antique wrought iron garden chaise longue, showcasing remarkable craftsmanship with scrolls entirely hand-shaped in the Art Nouveau style. This sculptural piece immediately captivates with the fluidity of its asymmetrical lines, its airy balance, and the exceptional decorative quality of its antique ironwork. The highly organic design of the curves evokes the grand ironwork of early 20th-century France, as well as the refined aesthetic of winter gardens, Mediterranean villas, and Riviera country houses. The structure rests on an elegant, curved base adorned with hammered details and broad decorative scrolls, giving the piece a strong architectural presence while maintaining a visually light feel. Used as is, as a decorative sculpture, or adorned with a custom-made natural linen mattress/cushion, this piece becomes a truly ideal daybed for relaxation in: — a Mediterranean terrace — a veranda — a patio — a winter garden — a vacation home — a boutique hotel or shop — a bohemian chic or wabi-sabi interior The antique patina and slight traces of oxidation contribute fully to the authenticity and timeless charm of this rare piece. A remarkable decorative piece that straddles the line between garden furniture, ornamental sculpture, and an outdoor architectural object. — Origin: France Period: early 20th century Style: Art Nouveau Material: handcrafted wrought iron Color: patinated gray-black Dimensions: Length: 170 cm Depth: 55 cm Seat height: 38 cm Total height: 104 cm Condition: Beautiful vintage condition with a superb antique patina.
