These striking examples of mid-century Czech design feature sculptural bentwood armrests and a bold, graphic upholstery that pays homage to the era’s artistic energy.The frames are crafted from solid beechwood, fully restored, and finished with a hand-applied satin matte varnish that highlights the natural grain and character of the wood.
